Which Agency Holds a Report from Aransas Pass
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.
Inside Aransas Pass that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Aransas Pass Police Department); outside it, the San Patricio County Sheriff's Office.
The FBI's list also carries the Taft Independent School District (other agency), with a records office of its own.
The Corpus Christi Police Department is listed by the FBI across two counties including San Patricio County, so its arrests are not broken out for San Patricio County here.
