Crime Prevention Apps and Reporting

To report a crime, contact a detachment and learn about crime rates in your area, please download the Alberta RCMP App through the Apple Store or Google Play.

The Alberta RCMP mobile app provides easy access to valuable resources and information, including:

• Online Crime Reporting Tool – for non-emergencies only; call 911 for emergencies;
• Crimestoppers – submit a tip 
• Local Crime Map 
• RAVE Alert registration (see more about RAVE Alert below

The RAVE Alert Mass Notification System is a tool used by the RCMP to send out alerts and information that support crime prevention and public safety.

You can register online and select the region that you wish to receive alerts for, as well as the type of information you want to receive, including:

• Traffic advisory notifications;
• Crime watch notifications;
• Crime prevention tips; and
• General public safety messaging.

By staying informed about public safety, residents and the police can work together to reduce crime and improve the safety of their communities.

What is SCAN?

SCAN (Safer Communities and Neighbourhoods) is a unit of the Alberta Sheriffs that helps keep Alberta communities safe by investigating and dealing with problem properties that are being used for illegal activity such as drug trafficking, child exploitation and gang-related crime.

If there’s a suspicious property in your neighbourhood, don’t investigate it or approach its residents. You can safely and confidentially report a suspicious property through SCAN.
