Police Report: Online Submission

Online reporting provides a convenient way to report crimes that do not involve an active threat or emergent crisis. When you use the online system, you are also saving the police time, time that can be devoted to addressing some of the more immediate problems impacting our community.

The Police Bureau uses the data generated from your report, to identify patterns and trends across the city. This helps us develop new strategies for addressing crime and distribute agency resources to the areas of greatest need. Your report is of great value to this agency, your neighborhood, and the city more broadly.
