When Crime Occurs

Report a crime If you see a crime in progress, call the police!

Only call 911 from a land line!

From a cell phone call 510-777-3211 which routes directly to OPD dispatch.

To report a crime that has already happened, call the non-emergency number 510-777-3333, or fill in OPD's Online Crime Reporting form. You'll find the link on their Report a Crime page.

For MEDICAL OR FIRE EMERGENCIES ONLY, you can call the Fire Department directly at 510-444-1616. They may respond faster than OPD.

Report Traffic Problems

The NCPC has learned that OPD Traffic Division has a phone number citizens can call to report persistent traffic problems: speeders, dangerous intersections, drivers not yielding to pedestrians. The number is:

238-3155
This is for reporting ongoing situations; automobile accidents should still be reported directly to the OPD emergency line, 777-3211. The Traffic Division won't respond instantly but they will put reported situations in their queue and will get to your location as soon as they can.

OPD Security Brochures
