Filing Police Report Guidance
Summary
If you experience harassment or verbal abuse, you can file a police report. Provide a detailed account, include evidence, and explain the impact. If the police are skeptical, request to speak with a supervisor, document your attempts, and consider legal advice. If you feel incompetent to report, bring support or prepare a written statement. Domestic violence advocates offer support, legal assistance, and resources at police departments.Full Conversation
