Choose the Correct Bristol Office

For a Bristol Police arrest report or booking-photo request, contact Bristol Police Records at 131 North Main Street, Bristol, CT 06010. Records can be reached at (860) 584-3061 or bpdrecords@bristolct.gov. Its public hours are Monday through Thursday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:15 p.m., and Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 1:15 p.m.; the office is closed on holidays. For present state custody or a DOC photograph, contact CT DOC Public Information, 24 Wolcott Hill Road, Wethersfield, CT 06109, at (860) 692-7780 or DOC.PIO@ct.gov, weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Court-case questions belong to the GA 17 clerk at 131 North Main Street, Bristol, (860) 582-8111.

Use 911 for an emergency or immediate danger. Routine police calls go to BPD Dispatch at (860) 584-3011. Nonurgent tips may be given anonymously at (860) 585-8477 or sent to BPDCrimeWatch@bristolct.gov. Dispatch does not provide report records or authoritative warrant checks. The routes below separate the main record questions.

  • For a Bristol mugshot or booking record, use the Home search path and submit a focused request to BPD Records.
  • For an active warrant question, consult Wanted Fugitives, then verify with the Judicial Branch portal, GA 17, or counsel.
  • For a recent Bristol arrest, open the BPD daily blotter through the Home page; the log is not a current jail roster.
  • For current state custody, a projected release field, or a correctional notification, use CT DOC and CT VINE. A person released before DOC entry may not appear.
  • For Hartford Correctional Center information, call (959) 200-3000 at 177 Weston Street, Hartford, CT 06120. It is a state pretrial facility, not a Bristol jail.
  • For a sentenced state prisoner's current record or possible photograph, search CT DOC first and then contact its Public Information Office.
  • For federal or immigration detention, use the federal Bureau of Prisons or ICE locator. Neither is a Bristol arrest-history or mugshot database.
