Price County, Wisconsin, has about 14,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A police report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, so which office holds a report from Price County depends on where the incident happened: the Price 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 Wisconsin Public Records 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 Price 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 Price County that is the Price 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 Price County Sheriff's Office is the county agency; it had 5 violent and 37 property crimes reported for 2025 and reported 215 arrests for 2025.
Its reports come from its records unit. The office's page SearchSystems verified is its custody page, at co.price.wi.us/1109/Current-Inmate-List (page title: Current Inmate List | Price County, WI), which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 23, 2026.

What the Wisconsin Public Records Law Requires
Under the Wisconsin Public Records Law the agency must answer a request as soon as practicable and without delay; the law sets no number of days, and it may charge the actual cost of copying and locating, with no charge for the first $50 of locating. The request goes to the agency that holds the report, in writing, and does not have to say why the report is wanted.
Any other county record goes through the county records request page SearchSystems verified, at co.price.wi.us/268/Open-Records-Request (page title: Open Records Request | Price County, WI).
A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the District Attorney, 715-339-3095, handles discovery for pending cases.
