Requesting a Copy of a Police Report
General Offense Reports:
If you are requesting a copy of your own police report, please go to the NextRequest portal (link opens in new window) or click on the button above labeled "NextRequest Portal" for submitting your request. Due to high request volumes and the careful review given to each request, processing times will vary.
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. The cost of this report will be $10 and must be paid on the website before you will get a copy. Reports can NOT be purchased directly from the police department. 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.
