Request A Police Report

There are various laws governing the release of information, including the California Public Records Act and the California Government Code. In general terms, if you have been the victim of a crime, were involved in a traffic collision, or have some other involvement in an incident resulting in a police report, you may be eligible to obtain a copy of that report.

To Request a Police Report: Contact the Records Bureau by phone at (909) 399-5411 or request a report in person at the Police Station.

Service Fee: The Claremont City Council authorized the collection of fees from users of certain non-essential police services that are not directly related with the protection of life and property. The fees are designed to provide cost recovery for these non-emergency services.
