Which Agency Holds a Report from Mooresville
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 Mooresville that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Mooresville Police Department); outside it, the Iredell County Sheriff's Office.
The FBI's list also carries the State Park Rangers at Lake Norman (state agency), with a records office of its own.
The Davidson Police Department is listed by the FBI across two counties including Iredell County, so its arrests are not broken out for Iredell County here.
