31. That varies by state

Some states yes, some no, and in every state where you can what can and can not be arrested for will vary and what actions you can take to effect the arrest will vary.

In NC the answer is a solid no. NC is one of the most restrictive states on this, in fact in NC a police officer can't even make an arrest outside the jurisdiction of employment, in most states LEOs have arrest powers for at least felonies statewide.
