Correcting Police Report Steps

I'm sorry to hear about that incident. In California, "criminal mischief" typically involves damaging property, but an attack with a knife sounds more serious and could be classified differently. Have you spoken to the police or a lawyer about possibly reclassifying the incident or pressing charges?

In California, you may request a correction to a police report by contacting the police department that filed the report. Here are steps you can take:
- Contact the officer or department directly to discuss the report.
- Provide evidence or details that support your claim for reclassification.
- Consider consulting a lawyer for guidance.
Have you already reached out to the police for this correction?
