Under current law, the fugitive apprehension unit has the authority to make statewide arrests under Minnesota Statutes, sections 629.30 to 629.34, but must contact other law enforcement agencies to apply for search warrants on their behalf.  This bill authorizes the Department of Corrections (DOC) Fugitive Apprehension Unit to apply for search warrants as prescribed in section 626.05.
