Why is it Important to Report Crime?
There are many reasons for reporting a crime:
- It can help to protect you, your family and community from future crimes.
- It can give you a chance to deal with the harm done to you or others.
- There is a better chance of finding the person responsible.
- It may stop someone from committing another crime.
- It can provide the information that could solve the crime.
Step 1 - Report the crime to the Grande Prairie Police Service (GPPS)
You can make a difference in our City by reporting crime to the GPPS at 780-830-5700.
Sharing information you have about a crime, or someone involved in committing a crime, can help the GPPS solve cases and prevent future crimes from taking place.
Step 2 - Be Resourceful
There are a number of ways that you can help to make your community more connected and safer.
- Get to know your neighbours.
- Be aware of strangers in your community.
- Maintain your property – a well maintained neighbourhood is less attractive to criminals.
- Join your Neighbourhood Association.
