If this is an Emergency please call 911.... now!

  This system allows you to submit a report about an incident that has occurred to your local police department. The following types of incidents can be reported on-line:

• Harassing phone calls/No known suspects.
• Identity Theft/ No known suspects.
• Lost Property.
• Damaged Property / Vandalism.
• Threats.
• Suspicious Situation.

  Once your information has been submitted to your local police department, you will receive a confirmation number. This is not a police report number. This is a temporary number until your report is reviewed by department personnel.

  Within 72 hours you will receive a notice from your police department that will advise you that your report was either:

• Approved- then you will be provided with an incident number and instructions for obtaining a police report.

OR

• Not approved- then you will be provided with an explanation as to why it was not approved.

  All cases filed using Citizens Online Police Reporting System will be reviewed.
