How do I find out the Act (and relevant Sections) I was arrested under?

In 2003 I was arrested (and given a Final Warning) for making a bomb threat in my street (I was 14 at the time, and I've learned my lesson since!), but the actual act I was arrested under, and the relevant section, is a mystery to me. I was too young to realise the details of what was happening.
Is there any way I can find out the details of my arrest, or am I just supposed to remember?

Just confirm who you made the threat to?

Just "the street" in general. I was only 14 at the time so it was a silly thing to do, something I regret now. Got a bit of a shock when I was arrested but it taught me a lesson in the end.
Ok, well its usually dealt with by Section 51 of the Criminal Law Act 1977. (sub-section 2 deals with falsely communicating any information about a bomb hoax etc).

However, you will have to ask the police force that dealt with you for the definitive answer.
