Records Section
The Records Section is a vital function of the Corona Police Department in providing service to the community at the Records Front Counter and by telephone. In addition to assisting the public, Police Records Technicians are responsible for the storage, maintenance, and retrieval of all crime reports, traffic accident reports, vehicle reports and arrest reports.
The Records Section is open Monday – Thursday, from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm.

Subpoenas – Civil Actions:
Subpoenas for records should be served to the Custodian of Records. The exact amount due will be determined prior to the reproduction of documents. However, please include a check (minimum amount $15.00) to the subpoena upon delivery.
Subpoenas for police department personnel appearances should be served to the City Clerk’s Office located in the City of Corona City Hall, 400 S. Vicentia Ave., Corona, CA 92882. A deposit of $150.00 per officer must be included with the appearance subpoena. Civil subpoenas require 15 days between date of service and actual appearance date.
Prescription Drug Drop-Box Program:
Unwanted, unused or expired prescription drugs have been determined to present substantial risks to our community by either falling into the wrong hands, or by damaging our environment through improper disposal. It is this awareness that has resulted in the Corona Police Department and other participating law enforcement agencies to provide a safe alternative method to dispose of unwanted pharmaceuticals.
A secure pharmaceutical drug collection drop-box is located inside the police department lobby. Community members are now welcome to turn in anonymously any unwanted medications. Loose medication needs to be put into plastic baggies and then deposited. Syringes cannot be placed in the drop box under any circumstances. This creates a hazardous situation for our evidence personnel. Once collected, evidence personnel will ensure that the medication is disposed of in accordance with State and Federal laws.
