Which Agency Holds a Report from Eden Prairie
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 Eden Prairie that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Eden Prairie Police Department); outside it, the Hennepin County Sheriff's Office.
The FBI's list also places the State Patrol at Golden Valley in Hennepin County; a report taken on a state highway by it comes from that agency's own records office.
The FBI's agency list also places one campus police department and three other agencies in Hennepin County, each with a records office of its own.
The St. Anthony Police Department is listed by the FBI across two counties including Hennepin County, so its arrests are not broken out for Hennepin County here.

What the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act Requires
Under the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act the agency must answer a request promptly, within a reasonable time, and it may charge copying, and staff time for requests over 100 pages. 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 County Attorney handles discovery for pending cases.
