How to Obtain Your Cheraw Police Accident Report
One document you will want to obtain after an accident is your Police Accident Report; a compilation of the Investigating Officer’s findings. This report will be filed electronically and requires your participation to get a copy. There may be notations listing contributors to the accident. A diagram or drawing may also be included, to visually define the point of impact and visible vehicle damages.
The Records Division of the Cheraw Police Department has provided us with the following details and points of contact to assist in the acquisition of your Police Accident Report. You will find more specifics within the In Person and By Mail sections, and your report may be obtained by either method.
At the time of your request, you may be asked to provide a Freedom of Information Act FOIA Request Form. If not available at the station or on its website, you may download Form G-639 and the instructions from U.S. Homeland Security. Uninvolved parties may only be allowed a redacted copy (at the discretion of the Records Officer).
