Provo, Utah, in Utah County, has about 115,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A police report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, so which office holds a report from Provo depends on where the incident happened. This guide names each agency, where its records page is and what the Government Records Access and Management Act requires of it.
This guide covers which agency, the city's records page, the sheriff's reports, what the law requires and common questions.

Which Agency Holds a Report from Provo
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.
Inside Provo that is the agency that reports to the FBI for the city (filed by the FBI as Provo Police Department); outside it, the Utah County Sheriff's Office.
The FBI's agency list also places two campus police departments and two other agencies in Utah County, each with a records office of its own.
The Draper Police Department is listed by the FBI across two counties including Utah County, so its arrests are not broken out for Utah County here.
