BE CONFIDENT, STAY ALERT & TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS
If you are intoxicated with alcohol or drugs, then visit the police station the next day to report a crime as the police cannot take a report from a person under the influence of alcohol or drugs
 
If you have physical injuries (even if intoxicated) have the police meet with you at the hospital, crime scene or at a safe place
 
If the violence, harassment, threats or verbal abuse is homophobic related, then you must inform the police to record this in their crime report
 
You can request the name of the police officer who completes the crime report
 
In a homophobic crime, it is usually not possible to have a LGBTI liaison police officer to attend, however, you can contact the LGBTI liaison police officer to discuss or seek support about the related crime report

The Queensland Police would like people (onlookers or the victim) to sent more information about offenders' descriptions, such as their registration number, model of car, time of the event, the location or/and the personal features of the offender.

For example, the picture below has been seen in a New Farm shopping centre. The person who owns this vehicle is breaking the law of vilification. Please let us not allow this silence hate crime exist in our community. If you do see this vehicle in a public space like a shopping centre, please send a photo (mobilephone), time, date, registration number and location to LGBTI.BCD@police.qld.gov.au or email it to walksafe and complete an online report, then Walksafe will forward this onto the Queensland Police.
