What are your options for accessing the arrest records for Kansas City?

A person who is arrested in Kansas is held at the Patrol Division Detention Unit, which is the local facility meant to house inmates long enough to allow them time to post bail. Unfortunately, there is no inmate search tool for this detention center.

So, if you want to know about arrests made in Kansas in the last 24 hours, you should call the KCPD on 816-234-5180 or connect with:

  • Patrol Detention (South): 816-234-5550
  • Patrol Detention (East): 816-482-8533
  • Patrol Detention (Shoal Creek): 816-413-3400

If the arrestee cannot post bond in a certain number of days (usually 24-48 hours), he/she is shifted to the nearest city approved detention center. The Kansas City Police Department uses three detention centers for such suspects-

  1. The Jackson County Jail: You can call them on 816-881-4200 and they have an inmate search tool at http://jccweb.jacksongov.org/InmateSearch/.
  2. The Vernon County Jail: You contact them on 417-283-4400 or write to them at [email protected].
  3. The Johnson County jail: You can use their arrest history roster at https://www.jocomosheriff.org/roster.
