What is the name of your state? someone in NY harassing someone in the UK

I've got a friend who's been stalked via the internet, harassed, has had her pictures stolen and used by someone else pretending to be her, has had messages sent to her friends and family in a way that would make her look bad in an attempt to hurt her charector.

My friend who is in the UK is 16. Her parents know (as of recently) the situation, and the events as they have been discovered.

This anonymous person is still very anonymous, and we are attempting to skip trace this person for this, and other legal reasons. (Seems the more we find out about this person, the more illegal things we find that they have done)

So here's my question - can the police get involved, due to this harassment? There's no fiscal damage, so there's really no way to go after them in civil court, but they have caused this person serious emotional harm.

I do thank you in advance for taking the time to read this
--Dave.
