Roseville, Michigan, in Macomb County, has about 47,000 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 Prosecuting Attorney files charges, a case in the Macomb County Circuit Court. This guide says who keeps each one, what it costs and who may see it, with the arrest counts the agency reported.
This guide covers who makes arrests, how many arrests, booking and the jail, finding an arrest, copies and common questions.

Who Makes Arrests in Roseville
The FBI lists Roseville with an arrest reporting agency of its own, filed as Roseville Police Department. It reported 1,310 arrests for 2025. 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 Macomb County Sheriff's Office is the county agency. It reported 764 arrests for 2025.
The FBI's agency list also places these agencies in Macomb County: the Macomb County State Police (state police); Macomb Community College (campus police); the Stony Creek Metropark Huron-Clinton Metropolitan Authority (other).
How Many Arrests Roseville Reports
The FBI publishes every agency's monthly arrest counts on the Crime Data Explorer. These are the full-year totals, all offenses, as the FBI held them on October 8, 2026; a year with months missing or not reported is left out.
- Roseville: 1,310 for 2025, 1,432 for 2024, 1,254 for 2023, 1,122 for 2022, 844 for 2021 and 752 for 2020.

Booking: Where People Arrested in Roseville Are Held
The county jail is where a person arrested in Roseville 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.
On an average day in 2024 the jail held about 910 people, down from about 1,030 in 2019. Its rated capacity in 2023, the last year with a capacity figure, was 1,082 beds, and it ran at 79 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 Macomb County Sheriff's Office at macombgov.org/departments/sheriffs-office/locate-inmate (page title: Locate an inmate), phone 586-469-5151, which answered when SearchSystems opened it on October 4, 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 person sentenced to prison serves the sentence in a facility of the Michigan Department of Corrections, whose inmate locator is at mdocweb.state.mi.us/otis2.
