You can't get arrested sadly.

Wait what? No curfew for teens?
OK another Q!
what can other sims in the game do to get arrested?

The only Sims in the game can be arrested are the NPCs that are (I'd assume) randomly chosen to be in the cases that active detective Sims play. I think I remember a guru answered that they can be arrested for theft, vandalizing stuff, and arson in the last ask-a-guru session. I can find the post if you're interested.

From what I've heard, only "unplayed Sims" can be arrested. What I'd like to know is if that simply means "any non-active sim" or if it means "sims in houses that one hasn't played yet"... or if it means "specific criminal NPCs generated for the point of the plot." Can anyone clarify this?

Well I doubt its the last one you suggested, Ned was shown getting arrested in a trailer.

Well, that's good at least. Although I wouldn't doubt that it's possible that some of the criminals are generated randomly for the job, since I remember hearing that some of the patients for the hospital career would be new randomly generated sims as well.

I really hope that my inactive, played sims can become criminals for the job, otherwise there goes my possible storytelling plans.

haha, having a criminal record in the virtual world? interesting, good thing it dont affect us in real life... (wait what? you mean there is life out there in reality-space?) hehe

It would be fun if there was "Rob store" option for... Kleptomaniacs or unstable?

That would be great!

Do you think it's possible to create a mod for this? I understand that there are no NPC's that are policemen but still, it would've been nice for our sims to get arrested. Now that I think about it, there is not a lot of gameplay or ways available for our sims to get arrested :-/ (for example: purposely start a fire, theft, vandalism) this is probably why our sims cannot get arrested because I mean...what can they do?

I'm pretty sure that they will try to create one..
In near future maybe

You can get arrested but it's rare. If you get your sim to join the criminal career then if you're lucky, a notification will say your sim has been caught and arrested. You can leave your sim there for 3 sim days or bail them by paying 200 similions

that has nothing to do with GTW.. the OP is asking if your sim can get arrested with just a NPC policemen..

So a teen who is "mischievous" can not be arrested by say a dad who is a cop? Or arrested by a sim who WAS played but now inactive but is also a cop?

Got a great story line and this would make it so mouth better.

Hello.
The teen in your sims household that you are playing can't be arrested by his dad who is a police officer or by another police officer.
