Union County, Pennsylvania, has about 42,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A police report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, so which office holds a report from Union County depends on where the incident happened: the Union 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 Union 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 Union County that is the Union 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 Union County State Police in Union 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 campus police department and four state agencies in Union County, each with a records office of its own.

What the Right-to-Know Law Requires
Under the Right-to-Know Law the agency must answer a request within 5 business days, with a 30-day extension, and it may charge copying at 25 cents a page. The request goes to the agency that holds the report, in writing, and does not have to say why the report is wanted.
A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the District Attorney, (570) 524-8651, handles discovery for pending cases.
