How to report a crime

The police and University Security Services work together to keep Leeds students as safe as possible.  

If you witness a crime, or are a victim of a crime, you should always report it to both the police and University Security Services.  

Reporting a crime to the police 

By phone 

  • Emergencies – call 999
  • Non-emergencies –  call 101

Online

In a non-emergency situation, you can report a crime online or talk to the police using the 101 live chat system.  

If you're a victim of crime it's important to report it, even if it seems minor.  

You will need a crime number from the police if you want to make a claim on your insurance.
