File Online Crime Reports
Welcome to the Sacramento Police Department Online Reporting System. Using this system allows you to submit a report immediately.
If this is an emergency or the crime is in progress, please call 911.
Upon completion of this process:
- You will immediately receive a report number and be able to print a copy of the report.
- Your incident reported online will be reviewed.
- Reports are reviewed and assigned to detectives for follow-up based on investigative leads, severity of the crime, the District Attorney's case filing guidelines, and investigative staffing. Unfortunately the majority of cases reported are closed without further action being taken. If a follow-up will be conducted on your case, you will be contacted.
- Once the report has been approved, a permanent SPD report number and a copy of the report will be emailed to you.
Please confirm the following to find out if online filing is right for you:
