St. Croix County, Wisconsin, has about 98,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A police report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, so which office holds a report from St. Croix County depends on where the incident happened: the St. Croix 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 St. Croix 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 St. Croix County that is the St. Croix 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 Spring Valley Police Department and the River Falls Police Department are each listed by the FBI across several counties including St. Croix County, so their arrests are not broken out for St. Croix County here.
