When should I call 911?

You should call 911 anytime you need police or fire sent to your location, home, or business when you have an emergency or just need assistance for a report or question. Our Cherokee County Emergency Communications Center dispatches both emergency and non-emergency needs for our first responders through 911.

For example, if you have an emergency such as a crime in progress, a crime has occurred, a vehicle accident, person injured, etc. call 911. Or, for non-emergency events such as needing a police report, VIN verification for a tag, want to speak to the Police regarding a neighbor dispute, etc. call 911.

If you need a copy of a police incident or accident report, need a background check, have a general question about Canton Police Department or a general inquiry regarding any of our community outreach programs, call the main administrative number at (770)720-4883 (M-F 8am-5pm) or you can email us at pdinfo@cantonga.gov .
