Which Agency Holds a Report from Fletcher
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 Fletcher that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Fletcher Police Department); outside it, the Henderson County Sheriff's Office.
The FBI's list also carries Blue Ridge Community College (campus police), with a records office of its own.
The Saluda Police Department is listed by the FBI across two counties including Henderson County, so its arrests are not broken out for Henderson County here.

What the North Carolina Public Records Act Requires
Under the North Carolina Public Records Act the agency must answer a request as promptly as possible; the statute sets no number of days, and it may charge the actual cost of copying. The request goes to the agency that holds the report, in writing, and does not have to say why the report is wanted.
Any other county record goes through the county records request page SearchSystems verified, at hendersoncountync.gov/rd/page/vital-records-request (page title: Vital Records Request | Henderson County North Carolina).
A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the District Attorney, (828) 697-4719, handles discovery for pending cases.
