just let the police know. Answer Go to the particular police that charges were filed with and tell them that you would like to drop the charges. If the person has other offenses, sometimes the police will not drop the charges even though you want to...such as assault, domestic violence, etc. They can take over at some point and it will not matter if you wish to drop charges. If it is an isolated incident, usually they will drop the charges at your request. It depends on the situation, the police agency.
