Report A Crime
We believe that it is highly important that you report your concerns. A Constable will be able to tell you what can and can't be done. Below are some tips to help you decide what to do.
- Decide whether or not it is an emergency - If it is, please dial 911.
- If it is not an emergency, call one of our local STPS Offices. You can speak to someone over the phone, or make an appointment to meet with one of our Constables in person.
- Make sure you have all the important information that you think you will need before calling.
- Try to remember as much as you can.
- Remember that we are here to help.
Crime Stoppers
The only way for the police to know when and where crimes are being committed is when we receive reports from the public.
If you are victim or witness a crime you should consider reporting the incident to police. If the offense is not reported then that person is more likely to commit the same crime again to someone else.
When calling to police some valuable information for us are as follows:
1. Suspect description
(Height, clothing, male or female, weight, anything that about him/her that is Identifiable to police or the public)
2. Time delay (how long ago did this happen)
3. Direction of travel (where did you see this person go?)
If you do become aware of criminal activity you can call Crime Stoppers from anywhere in BC. Crime Stoppers is available 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.
