What else can I help you with?

No, it may not be over. If the police are conducting an investigation and gathering evidence and it implicates you, they can arrest you at a later time.
Can you hold a criminal for the police?
Many different national laws allow for what is formally known as "citizen's arrest". You can arrest someone and turn them over to the police, if circumstances warrant. Of course, if circumstances do not warrant and you decide to arrest someone anyway, you can be charged with false imprisonment or kidnapping. So do not abuse this law. Acceptable circumstances vary from country to country, and can include; - Directly witnessed the crime being committed, - Preventing the criminal from escaping before police can arrive, - Preventing the renewal or continuation of criminal damage, - Preventing the injury of either the public, or the criminal themself, - Some countries allow any citizen to arrest someone who has escaped from prison or custody.
If there is a warrant out for your arrest and you get pulled over can they tell?
Yes. The Law Enforcement Information Network, or L.E.I.N. computer can tell in a matter of seconds if someone is wanted in the USA or Canada. Police have the LEIN computer in their cars, and if not, then there is a LEIN operator at the Police Station that can check the name.
If someone were caught shoplifting and the store doesn't show up in court does it get dismissed?
The case will be dismissed for "Want Of Prosecution." However, if you were turned over to the police by the store, and were "booked," (formally arrested and entered into the arrest register) even if the disposition of the case is 'dismissed,' the arrest will still remain on record.
Can a police officer take you to jail over a dog running stray?

What will the police do after you fight?
If you are fighting in public, like fighting over a girl at a bar, the police may arrest you for assault or public fighting, or disturbing the peace. If someone is seriously hurt, they may arrest the person who inflicted the injuries, unless it can be proven that it was self-defense. You cannot claim self-defense if you both agree to fight and the other guy (or gal) gets badly hurt or killed. Self-defense basically means that you never wanted to fight, that you were attacked and you had to defend yourself against further injury or risk of death. If you flee the scene of a fight, and the police want to arrest you, they will obtain positive identification of you from witnesses and issue a warrant for your arrest.

Police can arrest you for any reason if they have a prima facie case that you've broken the law. Doesn't mean they'll get a conviction (the evidentiary standards are much more strict if you're going to court), but police all over the world can arrest on reasonable suspicion (with specific exceptions sometimes).Since you didn't say what country you're in, I can't give any better of an answer.

Sure, if that's what's printed on the warrant.
Can getting turned in result in an arrest if the officer never saw anything?
Please define what you mean by "turned in." If a witness observed the offense and turned your name over to the police, yes, of course, that information may be used to identify and arrest you.
