Report And Document Requests


The Records Unit produces copies of police reports, documents, and other media for dissemination to the public, the courts, law enforcement agencies, attorneys, insurance companies, and other interested parties.

To request records, fill out the request form found here and submit by US Mail or via email to  PDrecords@redondo.org . Be as thorough as you can in describing the information you are looking for. It is helpful to include case numbers, incident numbers, dates, specific times, names and birthdates for involved parties, and any other pertinent information that will help us locate your records. Please also include a copy of your photo ID.
