Which Agency Holds a Report from Struthers
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 Struthers that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Struthers Police Department); outside it, the Mahoning County Sheriff's Office.
The FBI's list also carries Youngstown State University (campus police) and Mill Creek Metropark and Mahoning Valley Law Enforcement Task Force (other agency), each with a records office of its own.
The Alliance Police Department, the Salem Police Department, the Washingtonville Police Department and one more are each listed by the FBI across several counties including Mahoning County, so their arrests are not broken out for Mahoning County here.
