Heber, Utah, in Wasatch County, has about 19,000 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 County Attorney files charges, a case in the District Court for Wasatch County. 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 Heber
The FBI lists Heber with an arrest reporting agency of its own, filed as Heber Police Department. It reported 442 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 Wasatch County Sheriff's Office is the county agency. It reported 568 arrests for 2025.
How Many Arrests Heber 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.
- Heber: 442 for 2025, 616 for 2024, 714 for 2023, 615 for 2022, 814 for 2020 and 1,070 for 2019; 2021 is missing months.
Heber's 442 arrests in 2025 were down 28 percent from 616 in 2024.
Through July 2026, Heber reported 270 arrests, against 250 in the same months of 2025.
Across Wasatch County, the two agencies with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 1,010 arrests between them.
Booking: Where People Arrested in Heber Are Held
A person kept in custody after an arrest in Heber is held at the county jail, whichever agency made the arrest, apart from the short stay some city departments' own holding cells allow; a person cited and released at the scene is not booked at all. The jail's record of each person held, with the charges, is a public record of the arrest, and the court file takes over from there.
On an average day in 2019 the jail held about 82 people. Its rated capacity in 2019 was 88 beds, and it ran at 93 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 Wasatch County Sheriff's Office at sheriff.utahcounty.gov/corrections/inmateSearch (page title: Utah County Sheriff's Office Inmate Search), phone 801-851-4000, 3075 North Main Spanish Fork, UT 84660, 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 sentence of more than a year is served in state prison; the Utah Department of Corrections lists its inmates at corrections.utah.gov/inmate-services/offender-search.
How to Find Out About an Arrest in Heber
An arrest in Heber can be traced in three places, depending on where the case stands: the custody page of the Wasatch County Sheriff's Office described above, for anyone booked into the county jail; the case index of the District Court for Wasatch County, kept by the clerk of court, which shows whether charges were filed and the next court date; the County Attorney, which decides whether an arrest becomes a charge (its page is at wasatchcounty.gov/172/Attorneys-Office, phone 435-654-4676).
The court records page SearchSystems verified for the county, at wasatchcounty.gov/justicecourt (page title: Justice Court | Wasatch County, UT), phone 435-654-2679, belongs to a lower court, not to the District Court for Wasatch County.

Utah does not let the public search another person's statewide criminal history. The record kept by the Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification goes to the person it belongs to and to employers and agencies the law authorizes; for everyone else the court's own case index is the public record of an arrest that led to a charge.
Getting a Copy of an Arrest Record in Heber
An arrest report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, and that agency releases it, not the court or the jail. Under the Government Records Access and Management Act the agency must answer within 10 business days, or 5 when the request is expedited, and it may charge copying and staff time after the first quarter hour.
- An arrest by the Heber police: the police records page SearchSystems verified at heberut.gov/DocumentCenter/View/2554/Police-Dept-GRAMA-Request-Form (page title: REQUEST FOR RECORDS), which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 26, 2026.
- An arrest by the Wasatch County Sheriff's Office: ask its records unit, reached through the office at 801-851-4000.
- A defendant who has been charged gets the report through the case: the County Attorney, 435-654-4676, handles discovery for pending cases.
- The court file of a case that was filed: in the District Court for Wasatch County it is kept by the clerk of court. The court records page SearchSystems verified for the county, at wasatchcounty.gov/justicecourt, phone 435-654-2679, is a lower court's.
- Your own statewide record: a Right of Access request, fingerprint-based, to the Bureau of Criminal Identification.
