Report A Crime

The Department understands that coming forward with information can often be difficult. We make every effort to protect our sources’ identity. Information that we receive from the public is a vital investigative tool. We often have several questions about the information that you provide and find that it works best if we are able to speak to you directly.

  • If you witness or are a victim of a crime, it is best to call 9.1.1.. In some non-emergency situations, the 9.1.1. dispatcher may transfer you to the Records Unit to file a report over the phone.
  • If you have information about narcotics use or sales, you should contact the Narcotics Unit directly at 701.241.1415.

When reporting a crime, it is always helpful to take note of the following things:

  • Suspect Information: This may include name, date of birth, sex, race, hair color, height, weight, clothing, facial hair, tattoos, scars, etc.
  • Involved vehicle: License plate, make model, year, color, number of doors, damage, stickers, or other distinguishing marks.
  • Time of day and frequency of events are also important.
