Who Holds the Record?

Chatham County Sheriff’s Office
295 West St, Pittsboro, NC 27312
Main non-emergency: 919-542-2911
Business and Records Division: 919-542-2811
Detention Center: 919-545-7802
Public Information: 919-545-8130

Use these routes based on the question, not just the name in a search result:

  • For a Chatham booking record or photo, use the county records hub and the Sheriff’s public-records form.
  • For a possible warrant, use the Sheriff warrants route at 919-545-8120 or ask the Clerk; no public searchable warrant portal was verified. The wanted notices are not complete.
  • For a recent arrest, check the official weekly blotter and the restored inmate-search portal, understanding that the current portal was under maintenance on the research date.
  • For a Siler City incident, call 919-742-5626 or use the Siler City Records page. Its mailed incident-report route states $1 processing.
  • For a Pittsboro police record, use the Town request path and contact Carrie Bailey at cbailey@pittsboronc.gov or 984-282-6647; the town schedule lists $0.15 per page.
  • For Goldston municipal questions, call 919-898-4441 at 40 Coral Avenue by appointment. Booking questions should go to the Sheriff or actual arresting agency because no separate Goldston police unit was located.
  • For state custody, use the North Carolina Department of Adult Correction search. For federal or immigration custody, use the BOP locator or ICE locator.
