Can't find and arrest suspect
I can not for the life of me find the suspect that fits the description in my notebook (teen, black hair, ambitious, wearing a tank top and jeans). I found a sim matching that exact description, but b...

My Sim went to three different locations, because each time I selected 'arrest' my Sim would end up back at the precinct, alone! So, I had him go to the map again, post an APB, which would send him to a different location. I selected 'arrest' again, rinse and repeat. The third location was the park in WIllow Creek (for the life of me I can't recall the name). For the first time in all three of these locations, I didn't see the perp anywhere! I panned the entire park, too. Finally, as I was seriously thinking of having my Sim return to the precinct, she shows up walking along the dirt road in front of said park. Again, I tried to have my Sims arrest her. You got it, he ended up back at the precinct empty-handed. I made a post here on the threads for help. Did a 'repair game' and that solved my issue. I also have my Sim make a very thorough sweep through the crime scene. He takes pictures and collects clues from everything in and around the lot. (I see this as a cross between CSI and NCIS, two shows I love.) My guess is, if you're picking up the wrong perp, either collect more data than you have from the crime scene, and be certain you ask the suspect about the suspect before you try to arrest them. If memory serves, my perp acted all weird when asked about the suspect.
I was having this exact problem I reset it and did another apb no suspect BUT when I got back to the police station there she was. I don't care how she got there but thanks for this I was getting super irritated. I really enjoy this career and was having fun. I personally don't have any problems finding the right suspect just getting that one suspect back to the station. Solved 3 cases so far.
Same thing happened to me.
I did 3 APB on the same day. I arrested the same guy, in 3 different locations but my suspect refused to join me back to the station. I believe it was a bug so I stopped playing my sims for a few days. The next day my sim went to work, there he was, the suspect was waiting for me at the precinct. Weird, I say!
