Crime Log and Fire Log

Crime Log

The BGSU Police Department maintains a daily crime log that records all criminal incidents and alleged criminal incidents that were reported to the BGSU Police Department.  The crime log will include the nature of the crime, the date the crime was reported, the date/time the crime occurred, the general location of the crime, and the disposition of the incident.

An entry, an addition to an entry or a change in disposition of a complaint is recorded within two business days of the reporting of the information to the BGSU Police Department, unless the disposition changes after 60 days have passed.  A sworn, commissioned law enforcement officer makes the determination of disposition.

The crime log for the most recent 60 day period is open to public inspection upon request during normal business hours.  Any portion of the crime log that is older than 60 days will be made available within two business days of the request.

Requests for the crime log can be made to the BGSU Police Department at (419) 372-2346.
