Gathering police reports

[Peggy Gurney]

I use RAIDS as well. Get the reports emailed to me.  They're pretty vague, and usually 2 days behind - you might get a report on Monday from an incident that happened Friday or Saturday. And that is IF the officer sends it into RAIDS.

But it is pretty helpful.

I simply go into the police station downtown, go up to the 2nd floor, and as you step off the elevator there is a window ahead and to the right. Ask for the report. You must have the incident report number, and if possible, the investigating officer's badge number.

Thanks for the info. I probably won't have incident numbers though :-/

Was hoping there was a way I could be broad and get any report for an area between certain dates.

Are you familiar with RAIDS online?  It does not give detail, but is a nice summary of crime.  You can specificy certain types of crime within a certain radius.  It is available online or as an app.  You can also request reports being sent to you via email, again no detail just a nice summary.

Just checked it out, this is actually pretty useful, thanks!

Anyone know the process for obtaining police reports? I'd like to start gathering them bi-weekly for Rocky Ridge, just to be in the know. Not sure where I go, and what criteria I need to specify. Would be great if I could access them by street name.
