Kenny Chesney and Tim McGraw were arrested in Buffalo, NY after Chesney ran away with a Mounted Reserve deputy's horse and McGraw attacked deputies that tried to corral him.
It depends on what crime you have been accused of. And yes, if someone files a report on you they can arrest you with evidence for a minimum of 48hours even if the report turns out wrong.
It depends on the jurisdiction. However, police investigate any reports they are given, and if lying can be proven, you can be arrested and charged with filing a false police report.
Can I get a copy of someone else's police report
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.
File a police report and have him arrested.
No, it is not legal to call 911 with a false police report. You could be arrested for doing that.
call the police.
Report the activity to your local law enforcement - you may not see any immediate action, but believe me, if they have a hint that something illegal is going on they will put surveillance on it or put an informant inside.
Is it an offence to give a false report to a peace officer, and what does a peace officer do????
