    Our priority continues to be community safety and security. We are taking these measures to help ensure core policing duties will not be impacted. We appreciate your continued support and understanding.


    We would also like to remind the public that you can report crimes using the Online Crime Reporting tool.


    Residents and business owners from Richmond, with a valid email address, are able to use the Online Crime Reporting tool using their computers, smart phones or tablets to report a crime. The following incidents are reportable online:
