We recommend that you call ahead to make sure the report is available:

Incident Report and Public Records Request

The Sheriff’s Office is committed in trying to make services to the public more convenient in the busy world we live in. One way we decided to do this was to make obtaining a copy of an incident report easy. All you need to do is to fill out the form below with as much information as possible and wait for an email response. However, this convenience does not supplant Ohio’s Public Records Law. If you do not receive a response to your online request please feel free to mail your “public records request” to the Butler County Sheriff’s Office, 705 Hanover Street, Hamilton, Ohio 45011.

**Any report that lists an uncharged suspect will have that suspect redacted from the report pursuant to Revised Code section 149.43(A)(2)(a).

Email Records Requests

**If you have any issues using the above link, please email recordsrequest@butlersheriff.org
