In Harrison County, Ohio, arrest warrants are sought by the police in misdemeanors or felonious matters where the accused cannot be immediately detained after the crime has been committed or cannot be committed to police custody while leaving the crime scene. An active warrant is a name used to indicate a freshly issued judicial decree.

For a short period of time, it is left to the local police to execute this order. However, once such a directive is several weeks or months old, it is included in the central FBI database. This is done in a bid to catch the accused at the earliest. It is a procedural norm for all arresting officers to run a person’s name through this repository even if he has been halted for a civic or traffic violation.

If his name brings up red flags in the form of outstanding warrants from the county he currently resides in or from any other place, he will promptly be taken into custody. If the accused is being charged with a felony, the detainee will be deported to the county in which the warrant was issued.
