Requesting Arrest, Incident, and Booking Reports in Lubbock County
An arrest report concerns an arrest event, while an incident or offense report documents a reported event and may or may not involve an arrest. A booking record reflects detention processing. Related court documents address later case activity rather than the agency’s underlying report.

|---|---|
| Sheriff’s arrest, incident, or offense report | Lubbock County Sheriff’s Office Records Division |
| Lubbock Police arrest, incident, or offense report | Lubbock Police Department public information request route |
| Current booking or custody details | Lubbock County Jail Inmate Search |
| District Court criminal case information | Lubbock County District Clerk Criminal Case Search |
