Best Answer

If you are arrested due to an untrue police report, the person that made the report can be arrested and charged with filing a false police report. You would in turn be the victim in the case. The police may or may not need you as a witness in the false report case. You may also have grounds to sue the person that made the false report in civil court. Remember that even if the person is found not guilty in criminal court, they can still be sued.
