About Gnowangerup Police Station
Gnowangerup Police Station is the WA Police Force station for Gnowangerup, part of Great Southern District in regional Western Australia. It covers Gnowangerup, Borden, Ongerup, and the surrounding communities. Officers based there investigate a broad range of matters, from traffic and drink driving to assault, family violence and restraining order matters, drug offences, stealing, fraud, and other criminal matters.
Gnowangerup Police Station operates limited front-counter hours rather than around the clock. Outside those hours, urgent matters in the area are handled through Albany Police Station or by calling 131 444. If you are asked to attend for an interview, it will usually be arranged during opening hours, which gives you time to speak with a lawyer before you go.
For non-urgent police assistance anywhere in the district, including Gnowangerup, call the WA Police Force on 131 444, or 000 in an emergency. Direct station numbers can change, so it is worth confirming the current number for Gnowangerup Police Station on 131 444 before relying on it.
Whether you have been asked in for an interview, are answering bail, are providing a statement, or have been arrested, taking the time to understand your rights and get advice first can have a real bearing on the outcome.
