How to Get an Official Louisiana Crash Report

In Louisiana, the law enforcement agency that worked your crash owns the report: the Louisiana State Police, a city or town police department, or a sheriff's office. For a State Police crash, you can buy the report online through the State Police crash report portal or in person at a Troop office; for any other crash, ask the agency that worked it.
