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