What is a Fugitive Warrant? A fugitive warrant may be issued when someone accused or convicted of a crime flees the state or country. Fugitive warrants may be issued for felonies or misdemeanors. Fugitive warrants can act as a deterrent, since a criminal knows he can't escape arrest by fleeing to another state or country. Police may keep an eye out for suspects trying to blend in with crowds following the issue of a fugitive warrant.
