Greene County, Pennsylvania, has about 34,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A police report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, so which office holds a report from Greene County depends on where the incident happened: the Greene 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 Greene 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.
In Greene County that is the Greene 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 Greene County State Police in Greene 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 one other agency and three state agencies in Greene County, each with a records office of its own.
The Greene Washington Regional Police Department is listed by the FBI across two counties including Greene County, so its arrests are not broken out for Greene County here.
