Pearl City Police Blotter

The Pearl City Police Blotter is the daily arrest log kept by the Honolulu Police Department for central Oahu. Pearl City sits on the north shore of Pearl Harbor and is home to HPD District 3. District 3 handles patrol for Pearl City, Waipahu, Aiea, and a long stretch of the H-1 corridor. You can search the Pearl City Police Blotter through the HPD arrest log page, the HPD Records Unit, or the state eCourt Kokua portal. This page lists each path, each phone, and each fee so you can start a search today.

HPD District 3 and the Pearl City Police Blotter

HPD District 3 runs the Pearl City Station at (808) 723-8800. District 3 covers Pearl City itself, plus Aiea, Waipahu, Waipio, Waikele, and parts of the Ewa plain. Each call for service in those zones goes into the Pearl City Police Blotter. The district station holds local reports and hands off booking data to the main HPD Records Unit at 801 South Beretania Street in downtown Honolulu.

Each arrest opens a new line. The line lists the date and time of the stop, the name of the person, age, sex, race, the arresting officer, the charge, and the report number. No home address is shown. No phone number is shown. That rule comes from HRS Chapter 92F, the Uniform Information Practices Act that governs the Pearl City Police Blotter and every other Oahu log.

HPD's public access to arrest logs policy spells out the 14-day posting window for adult logs. Juvenile data is never posted. That rule ties back to HRS section 571-84(e), which keeps minor records closed.

The policy page above is the rule book that HPD follows for the Pearl City Police Blotter. It describes what is posted, what is withheld, and how to ask for an older log. It is a good first read before you call the Records line.
