Please Dial 911
911 is not only for emergencies!
911 is for every time you want the police or fire department to come to your home or investigate a situation. The seven digit number does not call our dispatch center, it calls the front desk of the police department. There is a delay in relaying the information from our desk to the dispatch center. If you are calling to reach an individual member of the police department, then dial (708)448-3979. Unlike Chicago, we do not use 311 for minor calls for service. All calls for service must go though 911.
Know how to identify your local police.
The Worth Police Patrol division wears dark blue uniform shirts, pants, and jackets when required. Desk Personnel, Community Service Officers and the Village Code Enforcement Officer are dressed in light blue shirts and dark blue pants. Command Staff may be dressed in either white or dark blue shirts with dark pants.
