How do you get details on Las Vegas arrests?

  1. Immediately after being taken into custody, the defendant will be held at the Las Vegas City Detention Center. You can use the arrest app at https://www.lasvegasnevada.gov/Government/Departments/Public-Safety/Inmate-Search-and-Information to get information on all inmates in this facility.
  2. In time, the person arrested will be moved to the Clark County jail, depending on bond and sentencing status and the charges framed against him. To access the booking log of this facility, you can use the tool at http://redrock.clarkcountynv.gov/ccdcincustody/inCustodySearch.aspx.

In both cases, you will be able to initiate the arrest inquiry by using the name of the subject or the inmate ID number. As far as the results of the arrest search are concerned, you will get standard information such as:

  • The full name
  • Age
  • Date of birth
  • Gender
  • Date of arrest
  • Arresting agency
  • Charges against the subject
  • Bail/bond information, where applicable

Unfortunately, at this time, neither facility offers the arrest mug shots along with other inmate data. In addition to the above tools, you can also call the law enforcement agency or the Detention Center for details on Las Vegas arrests.

  • The police department can be contacted on 702-828-3111.
  • The Clark County Jail can be contacted on 702- 671-3900.
