Officers shall prepare and distribute the arrest
report as specified in this directive.
GENERAL INFORMATION
A. The arrest report shall be prepared whenever
an adult is arrested for any state statute or
county ordinance or taken into custody for

B. When an offender is booked on warrant
arrests, a separate arrest report shall be
prepared for each warrant.
C. When an offender is booked for an Outside
Assist offense, a separate arrest report shall
be prepared from local charges for each county

generated, the offender shall be photographed
and fingerprinted.

a separate arrest report number shall be prepared
and completed. The offender shall also be
