I was arrested while hanging out with friends over ten yrs ago and we all gave the police officer false names. We were arrested for giving false names will that stop me from becoming a police officer

It could. How old were you at the time? What was the disposition of the case? It also depends on what departments you apply with.

I think you'll be fine if it's been ten years, especially if you were a juvenile at the time

I wouldn't worry about it if you were a juvenile. Even if you weren't, 10 years is a long time. You're probably good.
