What Is an Arrest Report?
An arrest report is a legal document which provides the details of an arrest. People also sometimes use the term “arrest report” to refer to an arrest log, a documentation of all arrests which occurred within a set time period. Such documents are usually available to the public by request, and because they can be items of news interest, many newspapers maintain a staffer who reviews arrest logs for information which might be used to generate a story or to provide more information about a story.
