How You Can find Wichita County Warrants and Arrest Records
Unless caught while committing an offense, a suspect can only be incarcerated based on an arrest warrant. Like anywhere else in Texas and in the USA, in order to be issued, Wichita County warrants necessitate a probable cause and the signature of a judge.
The sheriff office can provide accurate and updated information on any arrest order issued in the county. They do not offer an electronic inquiry tool. Therefore, you will have to visit their offices which are located at 900 7th Street, Room 100, Wichita Falls, TX 76301. You can refer your questions to (940) 766-8170.
If you have any grounds to believe you are wanted by the police, we suggest refraining from approaching the sheriff directly because you might find yourself behind bars. So either hire a good criminal lawyer or opt for a safer online inquiry.
