Dear Adam Young,

The date range that I need is 8-13-18 thru 10-13-18

I specifically need dog bite reports

Thank you

Yours sincerely,

Accurate

Thank you.
All bite reports will include the dog bite reports. Records Custodians do
not do research through documents to fulfill requests so much as retrieve
the files. We also don't have very many bite reports in general.
