A "win-win" for everyone
“This new system will allow residents to get their report on their schedule,” said Police Chief Craig Junginger. “Not only do we anticipate this new service will save residents time we also expect it to free up officers. Taking a routine police report takes about one hour and each hour spent taking a report is one less hour spent on patrol.”
This user-friendly system requires the filer to complete a series of basic questions about the incident and then submit their report. The report will be reviewed by police personnel and the filer will receive a free copy of the report via email with an assigned Gresham Police Department case number.
Emergencies should always be reported by calling 9-1-1. Non-emergency criminal activity that does not fit the criteria for online reporting will continue to require officer response by calling the Police non-emergency line at 503-823-3333
