To report a crime in progress, a person, victim or witness, can dial 911 or use one of the outside emergency telephones, or call one of the listed police phone numbers. Either reporting method will stimulate the response of police, fire, ambulance, or other first responders. In addition, the victim of serious crimes can request support personnel, such as ministers, rape crisis counseling or domestic violence, during or after reporting.

Additionally, crime victims may be eligible for funds through victim compensation laws administered by the District Attorney.
