FAQ Box

How do I claim or re-claim property that was taken by the police?

Please refer to the Police Property and Evidence webpage.
How do I find out about the incident or crime I reported?

Call the Police Department 509.527.4434 and ask to talk to the officer that responded to your incident. If you know who it is, you may ask for that person by name. If the incident is a felony, you may ask for the investigating detective. They may or may not be able, for various reasons, to give you certain details of the investigation.
What do I do if my bike is stolen?

You should have a record of the make, model, and license of the bike in your possession. If it is stolen, call the non-emergency police number 509.527.1960, or come to the Police Department.
Do I need a license to ride my bike in the City Limits? If so, how do I license my bike?

Yes, it is the City Ordinance to license your bike in the city limits. Contact the Records staff at the lobby of the Walla Walla Police Department. The license cost is $5 each and are good for as long as you own the bike. New owners should license their bike immediately. You will need your model number, serial number, make, color and speed of your bike to license it.
At what level of alcohol and/or cannabis consumption is it illegal to drive?
Washington’s DUI laws forbid a person from operating or being in actual physical control of a motor vehicle:
- with a blood alcohol content (BAC) of .08% or greater;
- with a THC concentration of 5 nanograms or more per milliliter of blood; or
- while under the influence or affected by alcohol, any drug, or a combination of alcohol and drugs, regardless of the concentration of alcohol in their breath or blood.
If I have a domestic violence situation, where do I go and who do I call?

If the incident is in progress, call 911; otherwise, contact Chalese Rabidue, Domestic Violence Service Officer at the Walla Walla Police Department.
If someone violates my Order for Protection or Anti-Harassment Order, what do I do?

Call 911 to report the crime if it's an emergency, otherwise, call the non-emergency number, 509.527.1960, or come to the Walla Walla Police Department.
What's the difference between an anti-harassment order and a restraining order?

The difference between Anti-Harassment Order and an Order for Protection is whether domestic violence is an issue in the situation. If domestic violence is involved, an Order for Protection will need to be obtained from Superior Court. If no domestic violence is involved and no assault or children, and the issue is just harassment, whether by phone or in person, then an Anti-Harassment Order would be obtained from District Court, 509.527.3236.

The unlawful harassment statue does not allow an order for protection from civil harassment to be issued in any action covered by the domestic violence laws (Chapters 10.99 and 26.50 RCW). Domestic violence is defined as physical harm, bodily injury, assault, or the infliction of fear of imminent physical harm, bodily injury or assault between family or household members; or sexual assault of one family or household member by another. "Family or household members" include adults or juveniles who are spouses, former spouses, persons related by blood or marriage, persons who are presently residing together, or who have resided together in the past, and persons who have a child in common regardless of whether they have been married or have lived together at any time. This also includes roommates.
