Therefore, I request the following:

- All video, photo, and audio recordings about this incident. Please include recordings as well as any body camera or other audio/video/photographs recorded that day.
- Incident reports, case files, or other official documentation of the event.
- Photographic evidence or documentation relating to the incident or its aftermath.
- Internal communications, memos, or emails discussing or referring to the incident.
- Any medical reports or assessments provided by healthcare providers
- Any other records or documentation you may have that would provide additional context or details about the incident.

If fees are expected to exceed $25, I request that you inform me first before proceeding. If my request is too broad, unclear, or does not reasonably describe the records, please contact me so I can provide additional clarification. It will be used in the course of reporting for Motherboard, VICE Media's science and technology site (www.motherboard.vice.com)

Should you deny my request, or any part of the request, please provide an explanation for the denial, including a reference to the specific statutory exemption(s) upon which you rely. Also, please provide all segregable portions of otherwise exempt material.

Please try to include any other miscellaneous documents that are responsive to this request that don't neatly fall neatly into the above categories.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 10 calendar days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Jason Koebler
