Flagstaff Jail Mugshot Records

Flagstaff jail mugshots are held by Coconino County, not the city police. Flagstaff sits at 7,000 feet elevation in northern Arizona. The city is home to Northern Arizona University. About 75,000 people live here. When Flagstaff Police make arrests, booking happens at the Coconino County Detention Facility. This guide explains where to find mugshots and request police records in Flagstaff.

Where to Find Flagstaff Arrest Mugshots

Flagstaff does not run a city jail. All arrests go to the Coconino County Detention Facility for booking. Mugshots are taken and stored by the county sheriff. Coconino County does not offer an online inmate search with photos. You must contact the jail directly for custody information.

To check if someone is in jail, call the Flagstaff Detention Facility at (928) 226-5200 and select option 1. Staff can tell you if the person is in custody. For mugshot requests, contact the sheriff's records division at (928) 214-2530. See the Coconino County jail mugshots page for details on the county system.

Coconino County covers a massive area of northern Arizona. The county sheriff handles all bookings from Flagstaff, Williams, Page, and unincorporated areas. The detention facility in Flagstaff is the main booking location. Every person arrested in Flagstaff gets processed there regardless of the arresting agency.

The county takes a booking photo during intake. These photos become permanent records kept by the sheriff. Unlike some Arizona counties, Coconino has not posted mugshots online. The county cites privacy concerns and the Houston v. Maricopa County ruling as reasons for this policy.
