Neighbor's dog deficated on my lawn, and we had verbal argument. Neighbor, has no fence no leash and his spouse accused me of posisioning their dog after it was very sick. This all occurred after this altercation with her spouse. I in no way ever hurt an animal and I would not endanger myself or my family's well being with an idiotic neighbor. I want to know if I can see the police report they filed with our local police as to see if it names me on it. No police officer ever came to me to interview me on the problem, so I want o know if I can see the report as I am having background checks on employment. Thanks

All police reports are public records unless they involve child abuse, abuse of an elderly person or juveniles (depending on the offense). Therefore, all you have to do is go to the police station and ask to see the report. It's public even if your name is not on it. It does take as long as 10 days for the police to write the report in my experience. I'm a lawyer and represent a sheriff's department and even I can't get them much faster. Valley R said it will cost you about $10 and that may be true if you want a copy, but it's free to just look. Copies do cost like Valley R said. The price probably varies.

You can check with the police to find out if a report was filed. You will not be able to see it unless you are charged with anything.
In the news, there have been numerous reports of animals dying from contaminated dog food. Just yesterday, on the 6:00 pm news, the reporter stated that over 100 brands of dog food may be affected. The source and cause have not been found.

yep ... just call your local police and you can get a copy. Sometimes it will cost you around $10.
Some of these over the top pet owners need to learn that not everyone loves their pet. I HATE when I'm walking down the street and some pet owner lets their dog come up to me and sniff me and crap.... I don't want that stinky dog rubbing all over me and my clothes.

Yes just go to the police station and tell them that you want a copy of the complaint.

Background checks look for convictions, not police reports.
