The Brooklyn Park Police Department now has a user-friendly online platform for reporting non-emergency crimes such as property theft, animal complaints, fraud, harassment, and more. This tool makes it easy for residents to report incidents that don’t require an immediate police response.
Brooklyn Park’s online reporting platform even includes options for crimes that may result in the involvement of investigators.
NOTE: If you are making a traffic complaint (e.g. speeding in a neighborhood, stop sign violations, etc.) do not use these forms. Click here to submit traffic concerns via email.
Remember: For emergencies, always call or text 9-1-1.
Instructions for online reporting

- Include the “5 W’s”, who, what, where, when, why.
- Mention any physical descriptions, license plate numbers, or other identifying details of individuals, vehicles, or objects involved in the incident.

- Mention if you have photographic or video evidence in your report.
