Known issues
Callers may experience long wait times, particularly during peak hours or when reporting non-urgent issues. These calls are prioritized by urgency, and non-urgent matters might be scheduled for a follow-up. Additionally, some local police stations no longer have public front offices, which can cause confusion about in-person services. It is recommended to use phone or email for contact, and appointments can be arranged if necessary. To minimize wait times, consider calling during less busy periods, such as mid-morning or early afternoon.
