Missing Persons

How can the police help me locate a missing person?

You may initiate a Missing Persons Report (for missing persons from Sacramento) by contacting non-emergency dispatch at (916) 808-5471. Contrary to popular belief, law enforcement agencies in California do not require a person to wait a specific period of time before reporting a missing person.

If you have additional questions, please contact the Missing Persons Unit at (916) 808-0650.
