The Felony Apprehension Squads' primary responsibilities are to locate and apprehend individuals with outstanding felony warrants. Additional duties include the service of writs of bodily attachment, ex-parte orders, juvenile pick-up orders, grand jury indictments, and penal warrants. Squad members also assist in returning wanted subjects from other jurisdictions to Miami-Dade County for judicial proceedings.
The Extradition Unit tracks and coordinates the arrest and return of felony subjects from around the world who are wanted in Miami-Dade County. The Operations/Administrative Unit provides support services such as warrants research and verification.
During 2004, the Bureau participated in two ongoing multi-agency operations with the U.S. Marshals Service: the Violent Crimes Fugitive Task Force, which targets fugitives wanted for high impact violent crimes including, but not limited to, homicide, felonious assaults, robbery, rape, and sexual exploitation of children; and the Fugitive Apprehension Strike Team that targets fugitives wanted for drug-related federal and state warrants.
