Police reports are now viewable on-line. Go to http://www.seattle.gov/police/records/online.htm and click the box ‘View Police Reports’. The first time, you’ll have to create an account. After that, you log in and then you can browse an index of recent reports by day and type, or by date range. It’s a bit inconvenient that you can’t narrow the search to an area of the city; you have to browse through the crime addresses. When you find an incident you want to see, click on it. The report comes up, but names and exact addresses are redacted.
