No. Ana Laura, am I right in thinking you're a Spanish speaker? I don't speak Spanish, but 9 times out of 10 it's similar to Italian and in Italian the translation for "report to the police" is "denunciare". If it's similar in Spanish, then you're being fooled by a false cognate.
If my house is burgled, or someone steals my car - then I report it to the police.
Report is a purely descriptive, neutral term to describe going to the police station and making a formal complaint. Not even to the police - it could be any authority. For example, I might report a gas leak to the gas company, or report a student for cheating to the school principal. It just means "tell the authorities about".
Denounce, on the other hand, a) does not necessarily mean you tell the authorities. I could denounce someone on my blog - it has more the general meaning of
accuse. But b) and more importantly it is not neutral - it has far more ideological connotations. Here are some examples from the
