Floyd County, Indiana, has about 82,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A police report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, so which office holds a report from Floyd County depends on where the incident happened: the Floyd County Sheriff's Office for the unincorporated county, the agency that reports for the city inside a city. This guide names each agency, where its records page is and what the Indiana Access to Public Records Act requires of it.
This guide covers which agency, the sheriff's reports, the cities' reports, how many reports, what the law requires and common questions.

Which Agency Holds a Report from Floyd County
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.
In Floyd County that is the Floyd County Sheriff's Office for the unincorporated county and for any city that contracts with it for police service, and the agency that reports for a city where the city has one of its own.
The FBI's list also carries Indiana University at Southeast (campus police), with a records office of its own.
Reports from the Floyd County Sheriff's Office
The Floyd County Sheriff's Office is the county agency; it had 28 violent and 63 property crimes reported for 2025 and reported 519 arrests for 2025.
Its reports come from its records unit. The office's page SearchSystems verified is its jail page, at in.gov/counties/floyd/department/sheriffs-department (page title: Floyd County: Sheriff's Department), which answered when SearchSystems opened it on October 4, 2026.
Reports from the City Agencies in Floyd County
The two cities the FBI lists in Floyd County with a reporting agency of their own, with the police records page SearchSystems verified where the city has a guide:
- New Albany: 111 violent and 771 property crimes reported for 2025; 1,421 arrests reported for 2025. The New Albany police department's page is at cityofnewalbany.com/police, phone 812-944-6411 (verified September 25, 2026).

A city on that list is reported separately whether the officers are the city's own or the sheriff's under contract; the FBI's list does not say which.
