There is a 911 outage across the nation, including South Lake Tahoe. No one with an AT&T cell phone is currently able to call 911 from that device in at least 14 states.

If you need to contact Police/Fire:

Within the City of South Lake Tahoe 530-542-6100, 530-542-6111, 530-542-6112.
In El Dorado County, 530-573-3300

We will update you as soon as we hear that the 911 lines are working. Again, this is only effecting AT+T Subscribers, land line phones and other cell service subscribers are not effected at this time.
