After a recent uptick in abandoned 9-1-1 calls, Kitimat RCMP are reminding residents of what to do if you accidentally call in.
If you make a 9-1-1 call in error, do not hang up, remain on the line until you can speak with a dispatcher, and advise them the call was made in error.
This is important, as if you do not, the dispatcher will assume there’s an emergency, and have officers attend to ensure safety.
