Welcome to The Austin Police Department's online incident reporting system. This system will allow you to report a criminal incident to the police department. The entries into this system are for incidents that are not in progress and no threat of immediate harm to anyone exists. If this is an emergency please call 911.

Before you begin, please be sure to have all necessary information gathered and ready to enter.

What to expect: Once you submit your report, you will be assigned a Temporary Report Number. Once your report is reviewed and approved, you will be contacted via email to confirm the acceptance of the report and given a permanent APD case number. You will receive an email to explain the acceptance of the report and any follow-up action required. If your report is rejected you will be notified and the reasons for the rejection.
