If you have a life-threatening emergency or are reporting a crime that is happening right now - CALL 9-1-1 immediately!

To make a police report about a crime or other incident that is not an emergency, you have the following options:

 

  • Call the police non-emergency phone number (248) 524-3477 and request that an officer be sent to your location.

 

  • Come in to the police desk between the hours of 7:30 am and 2:00 am and speak with an officer.

 

Whichever option that you choose, please be prepared to provide as much of the following information that you can to the officer:

 

  • Download a witness statement form.  Fill out the statement in ink, describing the crime or incident completely and sign it.
  • Your name, address, birthdate, home, work, and cellular phone numbers.
  • The name, address, birthdate, home, work, and cellular phone numbers of anyone else involved in the case (including victims, suspects, and witnesses.)
  • Physical description of suspects including height and weight (approximate), eye and hair color, facial hair, clothing, and any other identifying marks (scars, tattoos, piercings, etc.) 
  • Descriptions of property that was stolen or damaged, including: brand, model, color, serial number, any other identifying features and value.
  • If your vehicle was stolen, damaged, or broken into, have your vehicle registration or title and insurance certificate with you.
  • Copies of account statements and other documents for cases of fraud or identity theft.
  • If you were involved in a traffic accident on a roadway, it is better to have an officer come to the accident location. (It is advisable to move the vehicles off the roadway unless someone is seriously injured.)
  • For traffic crashes, download, print, and complete a  driver statement form.
  • If the drivers have decided to exchange information and make a report later, please have at least the information included on a traffic accident information formwith you when you come in. (you can also print a copy and keep one in your vehicle)
