Please remember when there is a possible emergency, please call 911 immediately. If you see a grass fire threatening a structure and wait 5-10-15 minutes till you get to a store and have the store call, you directly are endangering peoples life. Also critical information that 911 needs to collect, such as a cross street or close address can not be obtained. So please, just call and report when you see a possible emergency.
