Davie Arrest Records

Davie arrest records are processed through the Broward County jail system. The Davie Police Department makes arrests within the town, but all booking and detention goes through the Broward Sheriff's Office. That means arrest records from Davie end up in the same county database used by Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, and other Broward cities. You can search for Davie booking data online through the BSO arrest search tool, or call the Broward County Jail at (954) 831-5900. Davie has its own police force, which is less common for Broward County towns, so many records start with the Davie PD before going to the county level.

Davie Arrest Records Search

The Broward Sheriff's Office runs an online search tool that covers arrests in Davie and the rest of the county. BSO Arrest Search is a name-based tool for accessing arrest information from across Broward County. You enter a first and last name to pull up results. The system shows booking records, mugshots, charges, bail and bond records, custody info, court-related data, and release info. All of this applies to people arrested in Davie once they are booked into the county jail system.

The main Broward County Jail sits at 555 SE 1st Avenue in Fort Lauderdale. That is where people arrested in Davie get taken for processing. Staff log the charges, take a photo, and enter the data into the booking system. From there, the record shows up in the BSO online search. There is no separate jail in Davie. The town relies on the county for all detention and booking operations.

Keep in mind that the online search may not show records for people who have already been released from custody. For older Davie arrest records, you would need to contact the Broward Clerk of Courts or use the FDLE statewide search.

Davie Police Department

The Davie Police Department handles law enforcement in the town. Officers patrol Davie, respond to calls, and make arrests within town limits.

Davie PD is based at 1230 S Nob Hill Rd, Davie, FL 33324. The non-emergency line is (954) 693-8200. Unlike many Broward County communities that rely on BSO for policing, Davie has its own department.

The arrest report stays with Davie PD, but the booking record goes into the BSO system. If you want the full picture of a Davie arrest, you may need to check both sources.

Davie police also work with task forces and other agencies in the area. Joint operations sometimes involve BSO deputies or federal agents. Regardless of which agency makes the arrest in Davie, the booking always goes through the county jail at 555 SE 1st Avenue. The record ends up in the same database either way. For incident reports from Davie PD, you can call the records division directly at the main police number.
