THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN ENACT:
CHAPTER IV
Sec. 2a. (1) A peace officer of a county, city, village,
township, or university of this state may exercise the authority
and powers of a peace officer outside the geographical boundaries
of the officer's county, city, village, township, or university
under any of the following circumstances:
(a) If the officer is enforcing the laws of this state in
conjunction with the Michigan state police.
(b) If the officer is enforcing the laws of this state in
conjunction with a peace officer of any other county, city,
village, township, or university in which the officer may be.
(c) If the officer has witnessed an individual violate any of
the following within the geographical boundaries of the officer's
county, city, village, township, or university and immediately
pursues the individual outside of the geographical boundaries of
the officer's county, city, village, township, or university:
(i) A state law or administrative rule.
(ii) A local ordinance.
(iii) A state law, administrative rule, or local ordinance, the
violation of which is a civil infraction, municipal civil
infraction, or state civil infraction.
(2) The officer pursuing an individual under subsection (1)(c)
may stop and detain the person outside the geographical boundaries
of the officer's county, city, village, township, or university for
the purpose of enforcing that law, administrative rule, or
ordinance or enforcing any other law, administrative rule, or
ordinance before, during, or immediately after the detaining of the
individual. If the violation or pursuit involves a vessel moving on
the waters of this state, the officer pursuing the individual may
direct the operator of the vessel to bring the vessel to a stop or
maneuver it in a manner that permits the officer to come beside the
vessel.
(3) In addition to the authority prescribed in subsections (1)
and (2), a peace officer of a county, city, village, or township of
this state may exercise the authority and powers of a peace officer
anywhere within an adjacent county, city, village, or township if
the legislative body of the county, city, township, or village
having jurisdiction over the law enforcement agency and the
legislative body of the adjacent county, city, village, or township
enter into a written agreement for that purpose. As used in this
subsection, "adjacent county, city, village, or township" means a
county, city, village, or township that has a border in common with
the county, city, township, or village that has jurisdiction over
the law enforcement agency employing the peace officer.
