Yes. Jurisdiction is not normally defined by the type of road they are on; but rather by judicial, county, and\or city boundaries. Last I checked, technically speaking, they retain arrest powers anywhere they are in the USA (as does any law enforcement officer), mearly the case would be booked and processed in the appropriate law enforcement office.
