Report a Crime

Online Crime Reporting

Some events, specifically those with no suspect, can be reported online. Please see Online Crime Reporting to review reporting guidelines.

By Phone

Non-Emergency? Call the Report Desk at 604-859-5225 or use Non-Emergency SMS Reporting by sending a text message to ABBYPD (222973) using your mobile phone.

Many reports to police do not require a police officer to attend in person. If there is no suspect or there is no potential evidence for officers to collect, your call can usually be handled over the telephone or by SMS chat.

In Person

Some types of reports that you can make in person include:

  • theft of auto
  • theft of goods valued under $5000
  • found or lost property
  • mischief to property valued under $5000
  • incident reports with no suspect

Make an Anonymous Tip

If you have information about a crime and you would prefer to remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or visit the Crime Stoppers website.

Report an Anonymous Tip Directly to APD

If you have information about a crime that you would like to report directly to APD while still remaining anonymous, you can submit a Confidential Web Tip.
