When to file a report online

This online reporting system should only be used to report incidents that do not require immediate attention as the reporting system is not continuously monitored by police personnel. 

Using this system allows you to submit a police report and to print a copy of the report for free.

To file online, the following criteria must be met:

  • This is NOT an Emergency situation.
  • This incident occurred within the Campbell city limits. (Exception - Identity Theft)
  • There are NO known suspects or information about the crime that can be followed up on.

What happens after I file a report? 

1. REPORT your crime online. After you complete your report, you will see a message that says "Your Online Has Been Submitted."

2. RECEIVE a temporary report. After submitting your report you will be sent a temporary transaction number. This is you confirmation number but NOT your official police report number. 

3. APPROVAL of your report. If your report is approved, you will receive an email with the official police report number. Use this official police report number to file claims with your insurance company. 

Please Note

  • All cases filed through the online reporting system will be reviewed and will help us track crime trends and patterns.
  • The reports filed online are also usually the quickest and easiest way to get a report for your insurance company.

    The Campbell Police Department prides itself on the service we provide to the community, including sending officers to all types of calls for service. This online reporting system is not intended to replace personal contact by officers, but instead is envisioned as an additional tool for you to use to report crimes in the event that you do not wish personal contact by an officer.
