This division dispatches police, fire, and emergency medical service units for the cities of Live Oak, Selma, and Judson ISD Police. As well as other city services Live Oak Animal Control, Selma Animal Control, and public works when immediate response is required.

- Disconnected Cell phones are still able to dial 911 if the battery is charged, please do not let children play with old cell phones.
- If you Dial 911 by mistake, or if a child in your home dials 911, do not hang up, stay on the line.

Instead stay on the line and let them know you or a child dialed by mistake.
