Lucas County
Announced Citizens Can Text “911”
The Board of Lucas County Commissioners announced on
Tuesday, November 13 that “Text-to-911” is now available for
cell phone users that want to be connected with 911 in an
emergency. Texting to 911 gives emergency call-takers the
capability to communicate with citizens who find themselves
in a position where they are unable to call 911 because of
serious situations where calling for police assistance may
expose a caller to more danger. However, cell phone users
are urged to call if they can.
