Most folks don’t really think about looking up arrest warrants. They might believe this kind of information isn’t available to just anyone. Some might worry about stumbling upon something unpleasant. Or maybe they’re just not bothered by whatever warrants are floating around in the area. But things change when an arrest warrant suddenly puts them in the spotlight. Fortunately, there are ways to find out about active warrants in Perry County.
To do an arrest warrant search in Perry County, AR, the best source of information is the county sheriff. Unlike several other counties in Arkansas, Perry County’s sheriff maintains a website, http://www.perrycountysheriffar.org/. One of the duties of a sheriff is to prevent crime. In Perry County, the amount of crime varies from year to year, but around 95 criminal offenses happen in the county per year. The average numbers for violent crimes are about one murder in a year and five rapes.
By going to the sheriff’s website and clicking on “PRESS RELEASES,” researchers will find a list of news items, many of which detail arrests in Perry County, AR. This information is helpful not only in getting an idea of those who may have arrest records but also may detail some individuals with outstanding warrants in their name. There are also tabs for Perry County’s “MOST WANTED” and lists of area sex offenders from the main page.
The sheriff’s site also links to a list of outstanding warrants in Perry County, AR. To get there, from http://www.perrycountysheriffar.org/, click on “WARRANTS,” found in the column on the left side of the page.
The sheriff urges those who find an active warrant for themselves to address it immediately. There is an information number for warrant matters, 501-889-2333.
