Best Answer

You, as an individual, can not obtain an arrest warrant.

The most you can do is make a report of the offense to the police and, if upon investigation, they determine that the suspect you name is the perpetrator they will either arrest them or THEY will apply for a warrant for their arrest.

In some jurisdictions, if you witness an offense you may go to a Magistrate, Justiice of the Peace, or the court, and swear to an "information" which, if legally sufficient, could have the effect of having a 'summons to appear' (in court) being issued to the individual that you name.
