Requesting a Cumberland County crash report

Records held by Pennsylvania State Police Crash Reports Unit and Cumberland County municipal police departments. Typical fee: $22 for a Pennsylvania State Police report; municipal department fees are set locally. Typical wait: State Police reports are available 15 days after the crash; municipal reports vary with the investigation.

Start with the agency that responded. If the Pennsylvania State Police investigated your Cumberland County crash, request the report through the official State Police channel linked above — the fee is $22 and reports are generally not available until 15 days after the crash. If a borough, township, or city police department responded, that department's records unit holds the report, and its fee and turnaround are set locally.

In Cumberland County, crashes on PA Turnpike, I-81 and other state-maintained highways are frequently State Police investigations, while collisions inside Camp Hill, Carlisle and the surrounding boroughs are usually handled by municipal police.

A Cumberland County injury suit is filed with the Prothonotary of the Court of Common Pleas, the 9th Judicial District, at One Courthouse Square, Carlisle, PA 17013 (717-240-6294). Bring the report's incident number with you; it is the identifier every later record request keys on.

Whichever agency responded, keep the exchange-of-information slip the officer gave you at the scene. It carries the incident number and the department name, and it is the fastest route to the correct records unit.
