Which Agency Holds a Report from Clark 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.
The FBI's list also places City of Las Vegas Department of Public Safety in Clark 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 two state agencies, one campus police department and four other agencies in Clark County, each with a records office of its own.

What the Nevada Public Records Act Requires
Under the Nevada Public Records Act the agency must answer a request within 5 business days, and it may charge the actual cost of copying; staff time only for extraordinary requests. 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 clarkcountynv.gov/government/departments/building___fire_prevention... (page title: Public Records Request).
A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the District Attorney handles discovery for pending cases.
