Which Agency Holds a Report from North Aurora

A crime, incident or collision report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, and that agency releases it, not the court, the jail or the prosecutor.

Inside North Aurora that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as North Aurora Police Department); outside it, the Kane County Sheriff's Office.

The FBI's agency list also places three campus police departments and two other agencies in Kane County, each with a records office of its own.

The Wayne Police Department, the Montgomery Police Department, the Huntley Police Department and three more are each listed by the FBI across several counties including Kane County, so their arrests are not broken out for Kane County here.
