Which Agency Holds a Report from Runnemede
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 Runnemede that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Runnemede Police Department); outside it, the Camden County Sheriff's Office.
The FBI's list also places the Camden County State Police in Camden County; a report taken on a state highway by it comes from that agency's own records office.
The FBI's list also carries Rutgers University at Camden (campus police) and Prosecutor in Camden County (other agency), each with a records office of its own.

What the Open Public Records Act Requires
