Here is what happened. I'm still going to school and lost my laptop a few months ago in class when I left to use the restroom. When I came back, it was gone. A few months later, I recognized someone from that same class I had lost my laptop in, using a laptop that was exactly like mine but I spotted him at the school cafe. I went up to him and asked if I could see it and he said "no." I automatically assumed he was the suspect and grabbed the laptop from him and ran across the room, (struggling since he chased after me) to inspect it. Unfortunately, it was a mistake and was not mine and I returned it but shorty after, the campus police arrived. I've had my name taken down on their police report but I was not arrested and was released immediately. My main concern is, if I apply for jobs and they run a background check, will it show that I was a "criminal" or will my name show on the list? For this case, when will records be erased since I wasn't convicted? Who can see the records?
