A police report should be filed in the city or jurisdiction where the crime occurred. However, if you are a WSU student, staff or faculty member, and the incident occurred in the vicinity of the campus or WSU properties, we can take your report.

If you think you have lost something on-campus, you should call the Lost & Found department in that specific area. There are many Lost & Found departments located throughout the campus.  A list of those departments can be located at:  police.wsu.edu/lost-found/
A small amount of items are turned into the WSU PD Lost & Found directly. You can call us at (509)335-8548 to report the item as lost.
