Reporting to the Police
Call 999 if:
- a serious offence is in progress or has just been committed
- someone is in immediate danger or harm
- property is in danger of being damaged
- a serious disruption to the public is likely
If you or someone else is not in immediate danger, you can report any incident to the police by phoning 101.
If you'd like to report an incident to the police, you do not have to call them if you find that difficult. Through the Devon & Cornwall Police website you can make a report and they will get back to you about how to proceed. You are also able to report incidents anonymously, though they will not be able to contact you directlly, it will ensure the police can help stop any future incidents.
Remember, if you are unsure, uncertain or nervous you can speak to a Speak Up advisor, they will be able to talk with you about how to go about reporting an incident to the police.
