Missing headers on FCPD arrest text file for 1-2-2015

Yes, I know.  The FCPD arrests/tickets dump posted on January 2nd does not have a header row.

No, I don’t have any information as to whether this is a one time thing, or a permanent change moving forward into 2015.  What I do have is a copy of the January 2nd 2015 arrests/tickets file with headers that you can download.

(And yes, I’ve created an issue on my Fixed Width Text File Toolkit repository (GitHub) for figuring out the best way to handle files without header information.)

  1. Some good news. The latest file (i.e. second week of 2015) was released, and it has header rows. Since this one has the 2015 information in it, and the previous one refers back to incidents as far back as September 2014, I’m considering this new one to be the official start of 2015 data.
