Apprehension is the taking of a person into custody.
Any person authorized by this code or by 10 U.S.C. Chapter 47, or by regulations
issued under either, to apprehend persons subject to this code, any marshal of a
court-martial appointed pursuant to the provisions of this code, and any peace
officer or civil officer having authority to apprehend offenders under the laws of the
United States or of a state, may do so upon probable cause that an offense has been
committed and that the person apprehended committed it.
Commissioned officers, warrant officers, petty officers, and noncommissioned
officers have authority to quell quarrels, frays, and disorders among persons subject
to this code and to apprehend persons subject to this code who take part therein.
If an offender is apprehended outside the state, the offender's return to the
jurisdiction must be in accordance with normal extradition procedures or by
reciprocal agreement.
No person authorized by this section to apprehend persons subject to this code or
the place where the offender is confined, restrained, held, or otherwise housed may
require payment of any fee or charge for receiving, apprehending, confining,
restraining, holding, or otherwise housing a person except as otherwise provided by
law.
