Which Agency Holds a Report from Sharon
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 Sharon that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Sharon Police Department); outside it, the Mercer County Sheriff's Office.
The FBI's list also places the Mercer County State Police in Mercer 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 three state agencies, two other agencies and two campus police departments in Mercer County, each with a records office of its own.
