Ramsey County’s 9-1-1 center alerts residents of local emergency situations by landline phone.
Residents of the City of Saint Paul may sign up to receive these notifications also by text message, e-mail or cell phone at one or multiple locations - such as home or work.
A local emergency is an imminent threat to health and safety affecting those locations you have added to your profile. Examples include:
• Active shooter situation
• A lost child or vulnerable adult in imminent danger
• A search for an armed suspect who officers believe is a threat to others.
You will receive emergency alerts based upon the preferences you choose. For example, you can choose text message first - then email - then cell phone. The alert will be delivered to you in that priority.
On mobile phones, the text message will always be delivered from 89361 or 87844. Phone calls will appear from 651-266-9990. Emails will be delivered from the "@everbridge.net" address.
