This may be difficult to answer but here goes...
Someone commits a hit and run in one police jurisdiction and then continues into another jurisdiction and, an hour later, commits another crime there and then continues to a third jurisdiction and does the same. In other words an ongoing and moving crime spree that doesn't cross state lines.
Who would be the lead investigator on such a case? Would it be a detective from the PD of the initial crime? If so, can PD investigators continue to track criminals into other jurisdictions? Or would a higher body be called in once the second crime was committed?
