I always hope to provide many online resources for information on arrest records and the area’s warrants list, but that is not possible all the time.

How Do You Get State Agencies To Open Up The Police Blotter For You in Wake county?
  1. Initiate an offender search: This is an easy one! The police provide you a tool to find all offenders who are currently held in the County Jail. You will need the name of the subject for the arrest inquiry. Even the last name will suffice. The facility is available at P2c engine here. The criminal search results contain arrest mug shots, details on charges, and bail bonds.
  2. Look for police reports on specific events: The event search facility is available on the P2c engine website. If you have the case number, this is the fastest way to find the police log about it. If not, you can use the date of occurrence or the victim/suspect’s name to access the records. I want to clarify that this is a search for criminal incidents. So, you may/may not find information on the suspect or the arrestee from this facility.
  3. Please go through the daily log: I believe this is the closest you will get to access the agency’s complete police blotter. The daily log contains information on Wake county arrests, citations and summons issued, incidents investigated, and more. In other words, save for details on active warrants, all other crime-related data is available on the page at b2c daily bulletin.
  4. The most up-to-date arrest records: You can also find information on recent Wake county arrests from the Raleigh/Wake City-County Bureau of Identification services at this website.
  5. Getting a warrant search handled by the agency: You may have noticed that I have spoken about all types of crime-related records except for arrest warrants so far. For this information, you will have to take the trouble of visiting the Sheriff’s Office. It is located at 330 S Salisbury St, Raleigh, NC 27601, USA.

Apart from the local law enforcement officers’ website, you can also find recent arrest reports from the WRAL website.
