Reviewed and updated October 9, 2026 by the SearchSystems.net editorial team. The arrest counts are the ones each agency reported to the FBI, as the FBI held them on October 8, 2026.

Creek County, Oklahoma, has about 74,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate), and arrests there are reported to the FBI by the Creek County Sheriff's Office, nine city agencies and one other agency. An arrest leaves the same records whoever makes it: the arresting agency's report, the record of anyone held at the county jail, and, if the District Attorney files charges, a case in the Creek County District Court. This guide says who keeps each one, what it costs and who may see it, with the arrest counts each agency reported.
This guide covers who makes arrests, how many arrests, booking and the jail, finding an arrest, copies, cities and common questions.

Who Makes Arrests in Creek County
The Creek County Sheriff's Office is the county agency that reports arrests to the FBI for Creek County. It reported 195 arrests for 2025.
The FBI lists nine cities in Creek County with a reporting agency of their own, with the Census population and what each reported:
- Sapulpa, 23,297 residents: 562 arrests reported for 2025.
- Bristow, 4,282 residents: 114 arrests reported for 2025.
- Mannford, 3,429 residents: 89 arrests reported for 2023.
- Drumright, 2,527 residents: 28 arrests reported for 2025.
- Kiefer, 2,271 residents: 16 arrests reported for 2025.
- Kellyville, 1,049 residents: 8 arrests reported for 2025.
- Mounds, 984 residents: 16 arrests reported for 2025.
- Oilton, 891 residents: 24 arrests reported for 2025.
- Depew, 415 residents: 3 arrests reported for 2025.
A city on that list is reported separately whether the officers are the city's own or the sheriff's under contract; the FBI's list does not say which.
The Stroud Police Department is listed by the FBI across two counties including Creek County, so its arrests are not broken out for Creek County here.
The FBI's agency list also places one more agency in Creek County: Kiefer Public Schools (other).

Booking: Where People Arrested in Creek County Are Held
The county jail is where a person arrested in Creek County 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 2023 the jail held about 220 people, up from about 220 in 2019. Its rated capacity in 2019, the last year with a capacity figure, was 4 beds, and it ran at 5530 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 Creek County Sheriff's Office at creekcountysheriff.gov/inmate-search (page title: Inmate Search | Creek County Sheriff's Office), phone 877-654-8463, which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 24, 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 Oklahoma Department of Corrections, whose inmate locator is at okoffender.doc.ok.gov.
How to Find Out About an Arrest in Creek County
An arrest in Creek County can be traced in two places, depending on where the case stands: the custody page of the Creek County Sheriff's Office described above, for anyone booked into the county jail; OSCN and ODCR, the free online dockets of every Oklahoma district court, which shows whether charges were filed.
Oklahoma is one of the states that lets anyone look up another person's statewide criminal history: anyone can order a name-based criminal history search online, for $15 a search, through the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation. 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 Creek County
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 Oklahoma Open Records Act the agency must answer promptly; the statute sets no number of days, and it may charge copying at no more than 25 cents a page.
- An arrest by the Creek County Sheriff's Office: ask its records unit, reached through the office at 877-654-8463.
- An arrest in Sapulpa, Bristow, Mannford, Drumright, Kiefer, Kellyville or another of the cities listed above: the records unit of the agency that reports for that city; the city guides linked above name each city's records office.
- An arrest by Kiefer Public Schools: the records office of the agency involved.
- Your own statewide record: the same request described above, for your own name.
