Which Agency Holds a Report from Crawford County
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.
The FBI's list also places the Crawford County State Police in Crawford 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, one other agency and two campus police departments in Crawford County, each with a records office of its own.
