Minnesota Cities

Minnesota's major cities fall within one of 87 counties. Felony cases are handled at the county level, not by city offices. Each city's police department may take the initial report, but the county sheriff, county attorney, and District Court handle felony charges from arrest through sentencing. Knowing which county your city falls in is the first step to finding the right court for felony records.
