FAQ

When should I call 911 instead of a police department's routine line?

Call 911 for an immediate threat, crime in progress, serious injury, fire, or other emergencies. Use the agency's non-emergency line for routine reports or questions that do not require an immediate response.

Should I contact a city police department or the sheriff's office in Onslow County?

City police generally handle incidents within their municipality, while the sheriff's office generally serves areas outside incorporated city limits and operates the county jail and court-security functions. The appropriate agency can depend on the incident location.

Can I file a police report for an incident that already happened?

Often, yes, for non-emergency incidents such as property damage, theft, or lost documents. Contact the agency serving the location where the incident occurred to confirm whether online, phone, or in-person reporting is available.
