+xI would put in a written request, if they say 'no' then ask why. If they refuse to share it with you, you can't do anything until you know the reason why. Not to burst your bubble, but google will almost certainly refuse your request stating 'in the public's interest'. This doesn't mean don't try - you may get lucky. It may be worth engaging legal support in the event they refuse. Best of luck. You can make a subject access request to the police for a copy of the information they hold on you locally. It might well be redacted to hide names, but other than that it ought to include the report. There is information on the Unlock website about this here. As Square says, Google are unlikely to want to take down the links, and will probably claim it is in the public's interest, but there is a difference between the public interest and what interests the public. If your report from the police is favourable, it might support an argument that it is no longer in the public's interest, but you might well end up needing to take legal action. Unlock has information about this as well, which you can find here. The law on data protection changed on 25th May, but I have no idea if the changes will help you.

Robert Lightfoot, former head of NASA, said it succinctly in his parting speech in April 2018: Protecting against risk and being safe are not the same thing ... [W]e must move from risk management to risk leadership. From a risk management perspective, the safest place to be is on the ground. From a risk leadership perspective, I believe thats the worst place [we] can be.
