There appears to be a great deal of confusion out there regarding the arrest and bench warrants. Both warrants will results in an arrest but for different reasons. A judge authorizes an arrest warrant after evaluating the evidence presented by the authorities (police or detectives) who are bringing up charges against a person. If the warrant is approved, the Minnesota police will actively search for the person or arrest them during a traffic stop.
