Its 112 for police. Although most foreigners know and see 119 (Ambulance/Fire).
This reminds me of a lot of the other things that are in reverse compared to the US:
119 – US 911
Baseball – Umps call the pitch count by Strikes and then Balls, instead of Balls and Strikes
Last Name always first
Pay Grade – 1 is the highest (Tell them you GS-13 and they think you lowest level, lol)
Stock Market – Red is increase in stock price

Wrong, the number to call is whichever insurance company is most relevant to your situation because they’re the only ones who will show up fast and do anything. 😉
