Deltona, Florida, in Volusia County, has about 101,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate), and its arrests are reported to the FBI by an agency of its own. An arrest in the city leaves the same records whoever makes it: the arresting agency's report, the record of anyone held at the county jail, and, if the State Attorney files charges, a case in the Volusia County Circuit Court. This guide says who keeps each one, what it costs and who may see it.
This guide covers who makes arrests, arrest counts, booking and the jail, finding an arrest, copies and common questions.

Who Makes Arrests in Deltona
The FBI lists Deltona with an arrest reporting agency of its own, filed as Deltona Police Department. A city is listed separately whether the officers are the city's own or the sheriff's under contract; the FBI's list does not say which.
Outside the city, the Volusia County Sheriff's Office is the county agency. It reported 78 arrests for 2025.
The FBI's agency list also places these agencies in Volusia County: Volusia County Beach Management (other); the Department of Corrections, Office of the Inspector General in Volusia County, the Division of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco in Volusia County, the Volusia County Florida Game Commission, the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Office of Agricultural Law Enforcement at Volusia and one more (state agency); the Highway Patrol in Volusia County (state police).
Arrest Counts on File for Deltona
The FBI publishes monthly arrest counts on the Crime Data Explorer. For Deltona the counts on file are partial: Deltona has sent some months but no full year since 2019, so no annual total is given here.
Across Volusia County, the two agencies with all twelve months of 2022 on file reported 1,132 arrests between them.
Booking: Where People Arrested in Deltona Are Held
The county jail is where a person arrested in Deltona and kept in custody ends up, whichever agency made the arrest, though a city department may hold someone in its own cells first and a person cited and released at the scene is never booked. The jail's record of each person held, with the charges, is a public record of the arrest, and once the person is released or sentenced the record continues in the court file.
So far in 2026 the jail has held about 1,130 people on an average day, down from about 1,370 in 2019. Its rated capacity in 2023, the last year with a capacity figure, was 1,494 beds, and it ran at 92 percent of it that year. The figures are from the Vera Institute of Justice's Incarceration Trends data.
SearchSystems opened and checked the custody page of the Volusia County Sheriff's Office at volusiamug.vcgov.org/Details.aspx?InmateRID=523629 (page title: Inmate Information), which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 23, 2026.
That page is the place to look for someone who was booked recently; a person cited and released at the scene, or held only a few hours by a city department, will not be on it.
A sentence of more than a year is served in state prison; the Florida Department of Corrections lists its inmates at fdc.myflorida.com.
How to Find Out About an Arrest in Deltona
Whether someone was arrested in Deltona, and what came of it, shows up in three places: the custody page of the Volusia County Sheriff's Office described above, for anyone booked into the county jail; the case index of the Volusia County Circuit Court, which shows whether charges were filed and the next court date (the court records page SearchSystems verified is at clerk.org/Search-Records.aspx, phone (386) 736-5915); the State Attorney, which decides whether an arrest becomes a charge (its page is at sao7.com).
Florida is one of the states that lets anyone look up another person's statewide criminal history: anyone can run a name-based criminal history search online for $24, for $24 a search, through the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. That record shows what agencies reported to the state, which is wider than one county's court index but can lag it.
Getting a Copy of an Arrest Record in Deltona
The report of an arrest is released by the agency that made it; the jail and the court hold their own records of the same event, but not the report. Under the Florida Public Records Act (Chapter 119) the agency must answer promptly and in good faith; the statute sets no number of days, and it may charge the copy fees set by statute, plus a special service charge for large requests.
