Naperville Booking Records
Naperville 24 hour booking records come from the Naperville Police Department, one of the busiest suburban departments in Illinois.

The police department operates a lockup at the station on Aurora Avenue for short-term holds after arrests. People who stay in custody get transferred to the DuPage County Jail in Wheaton. You can search for current inmates through DuPage County's online lookup tool. Naperville booking records are also available through FOIA requests filed with the city.

Search Naperville Booking Records
The DuPage County Inmate Search is the primary tool for finding people booked and held after a Naperville arrest. The system lets you search by name or booking number. Results show current charges, bond information, booking date, and custody status. The database gets updated regularly throughout the day as new bookings come in. If you cannot find someone, try variations of the name or wait a few hours for the system to update.
The Naperville Police also run a crime mapping tool that shows recent incidents across the city. This is not an arrest search, but it gives context on police activity in different areas. Crime data gets updated daily.
Note: Not all Naperville arrests lead to jail time, so some booking records may not appear in the DuPage County inmate system.
