Crash Reports:
If an officer was dispatched and completed a crash report on scene, the report can be purchased from a third-party site, CrashDocs.org. Crash reports are primarily used for information or insurance reporting. By clicking the link above, you will be directed to another website to purchase the report. In order to find your report, you must know the last name of an involved party and the date of the accident. Using the report (or reference) number is also used to quickly locate the correct report, but please make sure you enter the number is exactly as it was given to you. Examples of report numbers: AP202212345 or 2022-12345.
If you completed an online crash report, the Aurora Police Department does not have access to obtain copies, please contact the Department of Revenue at 303.205.5600. That online report will not be available for purchase from the Aurora Police Department or the third-party website.
