Citizens wishing to obtain a copy of a releasable police report may request one via fax, mail, online or in person. Victims of a criminal offense may receive one free copy of a report in which they are listed as the victim. (This does not include recordings or photos). ARS 13-4401.19 defines victim. Standard fees apply to accident reports.
To process a request, please use the Public Records Request form and provide a report number (if available), date, time and location of the incident or name(s) of the person(s) involved. Requests should be mailed to the mailing address listed above.
Processing time for records will vary depending on the nature of the incident and whether the case is still under investigation. You will be contacted when the request is completed.
