Online Crime Reporting

A person works in front of a computer in the police dispatch center

If you have an emergency, or you want to report a crime that's in progress, do not use this form. Please call 911 immediately.

Report a non-emergency crime or incident

You can report online if:

This is a non-emergency
This incident happened in the past (not currently in progress)
This incident occurred within the city limits of Fort Collins
You don't know the identity of the suspect/s who committed the crime
There is no physical evidence or items that the suspect left behind (evidence does not include common objects like a rock thrown through a window. We cannot lift fingerprints from many surfaces like car dashboards)
This incident did not involve a gun

If any of the above statements are not true, please call us so we can connect you with an officer. Always call 911 for emergencies or 970-419-FCPD for non-emergencies.

You can also use our online system to report lost property.

**Unemployment Fraud** - Unless you've had an actual financial loss, unemployment fraud does not need to be reported to local police. For more information about reporting unemployment fraud to state authorities, visit our Crime Stats and Prevention page.

I'm ready to make an online crime report

Once you make your online report, you will:

See the words: "Your report has been submitted," showing that your report is complete
Be given a temporary case number
Be able to print a copy of the report for your records

Please Note:

All cases filed online will be reviewed
Upon review, if further investigation of your case is needed, you may be contacted
IMPORTANT NOTE: Filing a false police report is a crime and will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law

Online Report Form

Please complete this form as accurately and completely as possible. This will help us screen your report for potential investigation. If you only have partial information (like part of a license plate number, or a person's description), please give us whatever you have! If you need to report more than one type of crime (or multiple instances), please submit a separate Report Form for each one.

Report a motor vehicle crash

Some crashes can be reported online. Incidents that meet the following criteria can be reported directly to the state:

Nobody died, was injured or needs medical attention
You exchanged information with the other involved driver/s
There was no damage to any public property
No involved drivers are suspected of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
No involved drivers are suspected of insurance, registration or license violations
The accident happened within the last 60 days
Both parties agree to make an online report

Online Crash Report

Fort Collins Police will not investigate these reports. The online system lets people document an incident for non-criminal purposes like insurance. Please contact the Colorado Department of Revenue at 303-205-5600 if you have questions related to reports made through this system.

If you'd prefer to make a report in person to FCPS to document what happened, or if you are not certain if additional follow up will be needed, you may also come to the Records counter at 2221 S. Timberline Road to do so (Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.). Drivers can call police for assistance at the time of the crash* if they'd like an officer to respond to the scene, but wait time will vary depending on call volume.

When the city is under Accident Alert, drivers involved in non-injury, non-drug/alcohol crashes are advised to report online.*

Mental Health Crisis

If you or someone you know is experiencing an emergency, please call 911. If you think it would be beneficial to have a mental health professional assess and connect the person with services, tell the dispatcher that you’d like to request the Mental Health Response Team (MHRT). If a team member is not available, a patrol officer will respond to assist. All Fort Collins officers receive training related to mental health response.
