How bail works after a Akron arrest
When the Akron Police Department makes an arrest within the city, the person is transported to the Summit County Jail, operated by the Summit County Sheriff's Office at 205 East Crosier Street, Akron, OH 44311. Booking establishes identity and charges. For misdemeanor and traffic offenses that occur in Akron, arraignment is held at the Akron Municipal Court, 172 South Broadway Street, Akron, OH 44308, where the judge sets bond and conditions of release. Felony charges are bound over to the Summit County Court of Common Pleas (General Division) at 209 South High Street, Akron, OH 44308, which handles serious criminal matters.
