About this guide

Limestone County, Texas, has about 23,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A police report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, so which office holds a report from Limestone County depends on where the incident happened: the Limestone 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 Texas Public Information Act 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 Limestone 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 Limestone County that is the Limestone 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 agency list also places four other agencies in Limestone County, each with a records office of its own.

The Mart Police Department is listed by the FBI across two counties including Limestone County, so its arrests are not broken out for Limestone County here.
