What to do How to do it
1 EMERGENCIES or CRIMES IN PROGRESS: Choose one of these options to report a crime.
  1. From a campus phone or pay phone, dial 911 immediately.
    From a cell phone or off-campus phone, dial (858) 534-4357 immediately.

    Note: 911 calls originating from UCSD pay phones and campus phones are automatically routed to the UCSD Police Department and answered by trained dispatchers who can respond with police, fire, or medical assistance.
