Within North Yorkshire Police we are always encouraging people to report crimes. Without you providing us information, we are unable to “paint the bigger picture”. So, no matter how minor you may feel some information may be, please do get in contact with us. 

There are several ways you can do this.

EMERGENCY SITUATIONS

- Call 999

Use this number for emergencies where immediate police assistance is needed, such as, a crime in progress, there is a threat to life or a suspect is nearby. 

NON EMERGENCY SITUATIONS

-Call 101

For non urgent matters (this will contact your local force). This method is suitable for reporting minor crimes, providing information about criminal activity, making general inquiries or reporting suspicious behaviour. 

You can also request a call back to save you waiting on the line and a member of staff will call you back as soon as they become free. 

-Online reporting 

This is the same as calling in via 101 but instead using an online portal to do so.
