Incident (other than a vehicle accident) – How do I request a copy of a Police Report (other than a vehicle accident)?
Copies of any police report (other than a vehicle accident) must be requested in writing by filling out a Freedom of Information (FOI) request form. You can get this form by either picking one up at the police station or calling the police department and requesting a form be faxed or mailed. You can also download a Freedom of Inofrmation Act Request (PDF – 44k), print it and submit it. Fill out the form with as much information as possible (e.g. dates, times, address, names) to allow our Records department staff to accurately fulfill your request. If you have the report number, please include it. Copies are not available immediately, as the reports must be reviewed and approved prior to release. By law, we have 7 days to comply with your request. When we have completed your request, you will be phoned. The reports must be picked up in person, with photo I.D. by the person who signed the FOI form. Typically, FOI requests are fulfilled at no charge. However, there are exceptions. Charges
