Such details are only open to individuals listed in the record and authorized government agencies, including the police, the court, and the District Attorney's Office.

How To Look Up Floyd County Arrest Records

Floyd County arrest records are maintained by various agencies at different levels of government, including the County Sheriff's Office, local Police Departments, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, and the Courts.

Police Arrest Records

Communities often have the authority to establish municipal law enforcement agencies, commonly known as local police departments. Requesters who can identify the location of an arrest may contact the relevant local police department for records.

Currently, most communities in Floyd County are served by the county's Police Department, while municipalities like Rome and Cave Spring operate their own independent police departments.
