About Pingelly Police Station
Pingelly Police Station is the WA Police Force station for Pingelly, part of Great Southern District in regional Western Australia. It covers Pingelly, Wandering, Popanyinning, 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.
Pingelly 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 Pingelly, 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 Pingelly Police Station on 131 444 before relying on it.
You might be asked to attend for a voluntary interview, to answer bail, to give a statement, or you may be brought in following an arrest. Whatever the reason, understanding your rights and speaking to a lawyer first puts you in a far stronger position.
Have Police Asked You To Attend Pingelly Police Station?
Some take comfort in attending voluntarily, when police may be conducting the interview as part of a live investigation.
Should police have contacted you by phone, sent a notice to attend, or asked for a recorded interview, get legal advice before you engage with them.
Our criminal defence lawyers can explain:
- Whether you are required to attend;
- Whether you should participate in an interview;
- Your right to silence;
- Potential criminal charges; and
- The best strategy to protect your interests.
