^^ in most states 911 and the local non emergency number go to the same place, same operators. Cell phones are actually not as good as a landline 911 call. aif you have a true emergency and call from a landline atleast we get your address, name and phone number, we don't even get an accurate location from cell phones most of the time.

In this situation I wouldn’t want to be on either side of the door. A real danger exists for lethal mistakes in this “false” 911 call scenario. It seems that a call back to the originating number should almost be mandatory.
