You've fulfilled any obligation.
I don't know about where you are, but here in Austin, you are asked what emergency service to be connected to when calling 911. I'd ask for police and when connected there would state the nature of the incident and request that medical services be sent as well. If I'm in a situation where I have to shoot (or otherwise defend myself from an attack), I'd like the police to be the first to show up. It seems that in most cases, the EMS shows up first, so going through police channels would ensure that the EMS are well aware of the hazards of the situation before they arrive.
