🚨 If it's happening now or someone is in danger

Call 999 where there is an immediate danger to life, someone is using or threatening violence, a crime is happening right now, or the suspect is still at the scene. 

Remember:

You do not need to be certain that a crime is taking place before passing on your concerns. Reporting suspicious activity helps police develop intelligence and identify patterns that might not be apparent from one report alone.
