Local police want to make sure they’re able to help you as quickly as possible.
That’s why they’re sending out a reminder to use the toll-free number when there is a non-emergency that requires police attention.
Those phones that people are leaving messages on are only answered from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on weekdays.
If you have a non-emergency but would still like to talk to an OPP officer, call 1-888-310-1122, if you are in an emergency call 911.
