How can I obtain a copy of a police report?

To obtain a copy of a police report, you can come in to the police department and fill out a report request form or you can get a copy of a report request form in the forms & reports section of our website. You can either bring or mail the form in to the police department, or e-mail it to Cheryl Robinson in records at crobinson@somersworth.com. At the time of pick up, you pay $10 for up to ten pages of the report; any pages beyond ten cost $1 per page. Black and white pictures, if needed, are included in this fee. We do not take credit cards or debit cards – cash or check only.

If you would like your report mailed to you, we must receive payment and a self-addressed envelope in advance of mailing. There is no set number of days for you to receive the report. You will receive a phone call or e-mail notifying you when your report is ready for pick up and the actual cost of the report.
