This whole 112 dispatcher police number is going viral, please dont call 112 as an emergencies number, 112 is the European emergency number. When dialing 112 in the U.S. and Canada, the call is slowed because it is converted to 911, if the 112 call even goes through at all, according to a department news release. The department added that people should not call 112 to test if it works, so that the line may be reserved for people in ACTUAL emergencies. -By Ashley Luthern of the Journal Sentinel
