Fun fact: if you're going to pick a number to use in an emergency, you should nearly always use 112 if you don't know the local number for the specific service you need. In theory, it will work on any GSM carrier as it's part of the GSM standard, and certainly does throughout North America and Europe despite many countries in these regions more commonly listing other emergency numbers. According to Wikipedia, it's an nearly universal alternate number across the other continents as well.
