Which Agency Holds a Report from Queen Creek
The report of an incident is released by the agency that took it; the court and the jail hold their own records of the same event, but not the report.
Inside Queen Creek that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Queen Creek Police Department); outside it, the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office.
The FBI's list also carries Maricopa Community College and Arizona State University's Main Campus (campus police), each with a records office of its own.
The Apache Junction Police Department is listed by the FBI across two counties including Maricopa County, so its arrests are not broken out for Maricopa County here.
