About Karratha Police Station

Karratha Police Station is the WA Police Force station for Karratha, part of Pilbara District in regional Western Australia.

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.

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.
