Bucks County, Pennsylvania, has about 650,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A police report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, so which office holds a report from Bucks County depends on where the incident happened: the Bucks County Sheriff's Office for the unincorporated county, the agency that reports for the city inside a city. This guide names each agency, where its records page is and what the Right-to-Know Law requires of it.
This guide covers which agency, the sheriff's reports, the cities' reports, how many reports, what the law requires and common questions.

Which Agency Holds a Report from Bucks 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.
In Bucks County that is the Bucks County Sheriff's Office for the unincorporated county and for any city that contracts with it for police service, and the agency that reports for a city where the city has one of its own.
The FBI's list also places the Bucks County State Police in Bucks 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 six state agencies, two other agencies and one campus police department in Bucks County, each with a records office of its own.
The Telford Police Department is listed by the FBI across two counties including Bucks County, so its arrests are not broken out for Bucks County here.
