[Asterisk-Users] 911 and Cops knocking on my door

Hi,
I am quite new to asterisk so I am not sure what is needed to figure
out this problem. If more information is needed and not provided I
will gladly provide it.

I have a very basic asterisk setup. 1 x100p card and a grandstream
handytone 286.  I can make calls fine to most phone numbers from the
handytone device the trouble seems to come when I dial this number
591-1079. It puts me through to the local 911 dispatch. Causing the
police to show up at my doorstep and check to make sure everything is
alright.

I can see why I think; 5 "911" 079. But I don't understand why it is
being handled this way. Can somebody offer me some guidance on how to
get this to stop?

TIA
