911 service restored in some areas after outages in at least four states

Emergency 911 phone service has been restored in some of the areas hit by outages on Wednesday night.

At least six cities in four different states across the United States reported experiencing 911 call outages earlier in the evening, according to officials.

The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department said service had been restored in the city just before 9:15 p.m. PT.

“9-1-1 phone service has been restored,” the LVMPD wrote in a post on X. “All of the individuals who called during the outage have been called back and provided assistance. Non-emergency calls are also working. As always, please do not call 9-1-1 unless you have an emergency.”

Nevada State Police also confirmed via X that service had been restored for Southern Nevada’s Clark County, which includes Las Vegas and Henderson, areas that had reported the outages earlier.

The entire statewide emergency calling system in South Dakota experienced an outage, Pierre police confirmed to ABC News Wednesday night. Early Thursday morning local time, though, the Highway Patrol announced it had been restored.

“Service has been restored on the South Dakota 911 system,” read a post from SDHP on X. “Our emergency system is fully operational and ready to respond promptly to any situation. Your safety is our top priority, and we are here to ensure help is just a call away whenever you need it. Do not call 911 as a test
