Emergency
Call 911 - for concern for personal safety and for crimes in progress.
Your call will be answered by a 911 operator who will direct your call to police, fire or ambulance. It is very important to state your emergency clearly and to verify the location from which you are calling.
For Non-Emergency call 250-995-7654 - for events not in progress. (weekdays 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.)
Be advised the Victoria Police Department will NOT respond to reports of crime or calls for service via email or by fax.
Online Crime Reporting Service
Good when not requiring a police officer to attend such as a wallet stolen out of car. As well as for returning stolen items, the police would like to have this information as the police department is a statistics driven organization - they allocate funds accordingly.
Victoria Police Department App
The mobile VicPD app connects all VicPD channels into one application, including notifications when a child goes missing in Victoria or Esquimalt, reporting a crime where the suspect is unknown and the loss is less than $5000 and to stay connected with all VicPD’s social media notifications - Twitter, Facebook, Flickr, Pinterest & Soundcloud.
