Devon and Cornwall Police facing technical issues with 999 and 101 reporting systems

Devon & Cornwall Police released a statement earlier today to say they were experiencing intermittent technical issues with the 999 and 101 incident reporting systems.

During this time they have been asking members of the public to consider whether the matter is an emergency when trying to make contact.

In an emergency, you can still call 999 and you may be put through to another force. The details will then be passed on to Devon & Cornwall Police and they will be able to deploy resources.

Devon and Cornwall Police said: "We ask that you please bear with us and contact us online here for any non-emergency matters. Officers have been deployed out on patrol to maximise visibility and reassurance at this time."
