Spring
Car accident in Spring: the Harris County Sheriff, Constable Precinct 4 and the crash report
The short answer
Spring, an unincorporated community in Harris County, has no city police or municipal court: the Harris County Sheriff's Office lists its Cypresswood Substation at 6831 Cypresswood Drive, Spring, and Harris County Constable Precinct 4 keeps accident reports in its Records Division at the same address. A Harris County justice of the peace court lists that street address too, while the county's civil courts at law and District Clerk are at 201 Caroline in Houston.
