About this guide

Marshall County, Indiana, has about 46,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A police report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, so which office holds a report from Marshall County depends on where the incident happened: the Marshall 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 Marshall County

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.

In Marshall County that is the Marshall 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.

Reports from the Marshall County Sheriff's Office

The Marshall County Sheriff's Office is the county agency; it had 18 violent and 60 property crimes reported for 2025 and reported 236 arrests for 2025.

Its reports come from its records unit. The office's page SearchSystems verified is its custody page, at sheriffmarshallcounty.org/current-inmate-roster (page title: Private Site), which answered when SearchSystems opened it on October 9, 2026.

Reports from the City Agencies in Marshall County

The four cities the FBI lists in Marshall County with a reporting agency of their own, with the police records page SearchSystems verified where the city has a guide:

  • Plymouth: 20 violent and 93 property crimes reported for 2025; 365 arrests reported for 2025. The Plymouth police department's page is at plymouthin.com/department/index.php?structureid=26, phone (574) 936-2126 (verified September 25, 2026).
  • Bremen.
  • Argos: 2 violent and 2 property crimes reported for 2025; 63 arrests reported for 2025.

What the Indiana Access to Public Records Act Requires

Under the Indiana Access to Public Records Act the agency must answer a request within 24 hours for a request made in person and 7 days for one sent by mail or email, and it may charge a copy fee set by the agency, within statutory limits. The request goes to the agency that holds the report, in writing, and does not have to say why the report is wanted.

A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the Prosecuting Attorney, (574) 935-8666, handles discovery for pending cases.
