Release

Emergency Squad was distributed theatrically in Italy on 24 April 1974 by Jumbo Cinematografica. The film grossed a total of 985,981,000 Italian lire. Film historian and critic Roberto Curti described Emergency Squad as a "surprising commercial hit" on its initial theatrical release.

Director Stelvio Massi recalled that on the film's premiere in Rome he was deeply embarrassed by the audience's reaction to a scene where bandits shoot a police car that explodes as the audience greeted the scene with rapturous applause.
