Incident Reports

Incident reports are police reports other than accident reports, from traffic warnings to formal investigative reports.  All incident reports are reviewed prior to being released.  The review process includes redacting confidential information.  The requester will be notified of any redactions or denials.  This process takes time.  Depending on the requested records, this may take up to two weeks or in some cases longer.

To request an incident report, complete the Record's Request Form and submit.  Please state what report you are looking for by including; incident date, address incident occured at, parties involved, and nature of call.

There is a $2.00 minimum charge to pick up the incident report at the Wausau Police Department Customer Service window or $3.00 to have it mailed or faxed.  For reports over 8 pages, we charge an additional $.25 per page plus postage.  For larger requests the Police Department will charge actual time and materials to process the request.  In these instances the requester will be notified prior to starting the project. 

In-House Record Checks

The Police Department will process In-House Record Checks for a fee of $5.00 per person.  The in-house record check will list Wausau Police contacts and/or citations and arrests only.   Print the PDF file link above and follow the instructions.  The in-house record check will be mailed back to you.  In-house record checks will not include juvenile information.
