Which Agency Holds a Report from Girard
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 Girard that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Girard Police Department); outside it, the Trumbull County Sheriff's Office.
The Youngstown Police Department is listed by the FBI across two counties including Trumbull County, so its arrests are not broken out for Trumbull County here.
