Emergency Information

Serious or Life-Threatening Emergencies

Examples of serious or life-threatening emergencies include personal injury, car accidents, suicidal or homicidal thoughts, missing persons, fires, natural disasters (tornado, flood, etc.), in-progress crimes, threats or acts of violence, and sexual assault.

  • Call 911.

    • If you feel you are in danger or require emergency assistance, notify the police by calling 911 on any phone. Your call will be directed to a dispatcher who will send the necessary help to you (police, ambulance, and/or firefighters). If your phone is an international cell phone, you will need to let them know that you are located in Minnesota.

    • 911 can also dispatch community-first response teams to non-emergency calls, including specially trained EMTs and social workers. If you wish, you may request that a social worker be sent when you call 911.

  • If you are on or near campus, call the CSP Security emergency line at (651) 641-8777.
