Who Issues Warrants in St. Louis Park
In Minnesota an arrest warrant is signed by a judge. For St. Louis Park that means the Hennepin County District Court, which hears every civil, criminal, family, probate and juvenile case.
When a defendant misses a court date the judge issues a bench warrant, and either kind of warrant lives in the court file of the case, kept by the court administrator.
For Hennepin County, SearchSystems opened and checked the court records page for the county at mncourts.gov/find-courts/hennepin/records-center-hennepin (page title: Records Center | Hennepin County District Court), a site that blocks automated checks (HTTP 403), so open it in a browser.

Who Serves Warrants in St. Louis Park
The Hennepin County Sheriff's Office and the agency that reports for St. Louis Park (filed by the FBI as St. Louis Park Police Department) serve warrants in and around St. Louis Park.
The FBI's agency list also places one campus police department, three other agencies and one state police unit in Hennepin County (the arrest records guide names each one); each serves warrants on its own ground.
The St. Anthony Police Department is listed by the FBI across two counties including Hennepin County, so its arrests are not broken out for Hennepin County here.
The agency that serves a warrant from Hennepin County is whichever one finds the person; an Minnesota warrant is valid across Minnesota.
Together, the 29 agencies in Hennepin County with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 25,183 arrests to the FBI that year; arrests on warrants are counted among them, not separately.
Each agency and what it reported is in St. Louis Park arrest records.

How to Check for a Warrant in St. Louis Park
Whether a warrant is out from St. Louis Park shows in three places:
- Minnesota Court Records Online, the Minnesota Judicial Branch's free statewide case search, for a case whose register of actions shows a warrant.
- The County Attorney, which can say whether charges were filed; a warrant on a complaint follows the filing.
- The custody page of the Hennepin County Sheriff's Office at minneapolismn.gov, which shows people already arrested and booked, not open warrants.
Not one of the Hennepin County pages SearchSystems verified (the sheriff's and the prosecutor's) is a list of open warrants, so a check means asking the court or the prosecutor about a case by name.
Clearing a Warrant from St. Louis Park
A warrant is recalled by the court that issued it, so clearing one from St. Louis Park starts with the court administrator: the case goes back on the calendar and the judge recalls the warrant when the person appears.
A lawyer can often arrange the appearance in advance. The County Attorney's page SearchSystems verified is at hennepincounty.gov.
