• Where can I find access to 1960s and 1970s arrest records in Arkansas?
  Depends on which department or area. Police departments have records divisions that list what they provide and how on their web pages. You will also find a call number where it can be asked. The arrests that you see posted on police websites are logs of people that were recently taken into custody. If you are looking for an official arrest report, the police department that made the arrest is the one that would still have it. Law enforcement records divisions maintain webpages with how to request official arrest reports. The Springdale PD, for example, has a records division webpage that says the arrest reports are provided unless the case is still under investigation.
