Reporting a Crime

If You Witness a Crime on Campus

Timely reporting is often the main factor in solving a crime. If you have witnessed a crime on campus or have information concerning a crime on campus, please contact the Department of Public Safety Police Division or Silent Witness Online.

Campus Emergency 273-4000
Police Business Office 273-2712

Public Safety dispatchers are trained to obtain the most accurate and complete information possible regarding activities you witness. When contacting Public Safety, please stay on the line until the dispatcher disconnects the call.

The dispatcher will need specific information from you such as:

  • What is the incident?
  • Where is the incident?
  • Who is involved?

The identity of any caller is confidential. However, all reporting parties should leave a contact number should follow-up be needed. This information is confidential.

Crime victims, as well as persons reporting a crime, may file a report confidentially with the UNI Public Safety Department, Residence Hall Coordinators, the Associate Vice President for Educational and Student Services, or the Coordinator of Student Organizations and Activities. Victims of sexual abuse have the additional option of filing an anonymous report with the Coordinator of UNI Sexual Abuse Services.
