If you've witnessed or been the victim of a crime, it's really important to report it. We know that sometimes it’s not easy to come forward. But we also know that if no one reports a crime, it’s as if it never happened. It’s also important to report crime for your own practical purposes, like getting a Police Report number so that you can make an insurance claim.
