When to phone 911

911 is for police, fire or medical emergencies when immediate action is required—when someone’s health, safety or property is in jeopardy or a crime is in progress. Examples include:

  • An event that involves an immediate threat to person or property. Screams, attacks, gunshots, fire, car accident with injuries or any other medical emergency.
  • A substantive, in-progress crime. This includes fights, break-and-enters (with suspect on scene), or a report of an impaired driver.
  • A serious crime that has just occurred (i.e. robbery).

  • Reporting a crime with no suspect (i.e. theft of license plate).
  • Reporting a crime with suspect, but the suspect is not on the scene (i.e. fraud).

The CPOs play an important role in connecting the Burnaby RCMP with our community by increasing police accessibility to residents and businesses in the area.
