Any
peace officer of this state in fresh pursuit of a person who is reasonably
believed by him to have committed a felony in this state or has committed, or
attempted to commit, any criminal offense or traffic infraction in this state
in the presence of such officer, or for whom a warrant of arrest is
outstanding for a criminal offense, shall have authority to pursue, arrest and
hold in custody or cite such person anywhere in this state. All privileges and
immunities from liability, exemption from law, ordinances and rules, all
pension relief, disability, workmen's compensation, and other benefits which
normally apply to peace officers while they perform their duties in their own
jurisdiction shall also apply to them when acting as contemplated above. In

acting in response to a request for assistance out of his employing
jurisdiction. The cost of this protection shall be borne by the individual
peace officer's employing jurisdiction.
