Residents are being reminded of a fully active, dedicated phone-line that is meant for non-emergency police matters.

The phone line is 310-RCMP (310-2767) and it is available province-wide in Alberta. 

310-RCMP calls are directed to the Alberta Operational Communication Centre who then dispatch non-emergency calls in the order of their priority. 

Whether you need to report a suspicious person, property damage, or a minor theft, this number connects you directly to the appropriate RCMP detachment—no area code required. 

The 310-RCMP line can help streamline the reporting process, police say, ease pressure on 911 services, and support more efficient police responses to non-urgent incidents.

Non-emergencies:

• Do not pose an immediate or potential threat to life or public safety.
• Include crimes that have already taken place prior to being discovered.
• Often do not require police attendance, but do require police response.

Examples include but are not limited to:

• Minor motor vehicle collisions.
• Break and enters that already took place.
• Scams in which money or personal information was not transferred or provided.
• Lost property.
• Property damage under $5,000.
• Theft under $5,000.

While these types of reports are important, they are not an emergency, say the RCMP. 

Ways to report non-emergencies:

• Call 310-RCMP (7267)
• To report online, download the Alberta RCMP app through Apple or Google Play. Alternatively, visit www.rcmp-grc.gc.ca/ab and select Online Crime Reporting under quick links.
