Which Agency Holds a Report from Armstrong 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 the Armstrong County State Police in Armstrong County; a report taken on a state highway by it comes from that agency's own records office.
The FBI's list also carries the Bureau of Forestry in Armstrong County and the Office of Attorney General Region 3 in Armstrong County (state agency), each with a records office of its own.
