Public Records

The Toledo Police Department Public Records Office processes requests for information under the Ohio Public Records Act. 

Requests for records such as 911 audio, police video, photos, policies and procedures, and bulk (three or more) reports may be made through this page.

Please do not use the Public Records Request Office for a copy of a single report. Information on getting a single crime, incident, or accident report is available on the Getting a Crime Report page.

If an ongoing court case is involved, record requests must go through discovery.  Also, internal TPD complaint investigations must be closed before related material may be released. All records are subject to redaction.

For efficiency, you may submit this Public Records Request form. If using the online form, please submit a separate form for each request. To prevent glitches, save/download the form and then open it in Adobe Reader before filling it out.
