ALL offenses are extraditable if the state wants you back badly enough. All US states and territories honor each other's requests for extradition - there are no 'safe-haven' states - it is impossible to state with certainty whether a particular state will choose to extradite you or not, there are simply too many variables. It may depend on the offense and the seriousness of it and/or how badly they want you returned - most states WILLextradite for felony offenses.

What happens when you have warrant in Arizona?

The same thing that happens everywhere in the U.S. when you have a warrant. You are arrested and held overnight for an arraignment in the morning. - If you are in Arizona you will be arrested. If you are outside Arizona and it is a misdemeanor and non-extraditable, then you will be stopped and let go when they realize it is non-extraditable. NCIC should say if it is extraditable or not. States usually don't extradite over misdemeanors, but they almost always do for felonies. That said, almost 40 percent of felony warrants aren't entered into NCIC. I read that in a news article a few years back. The reason was because if they entered every single warrant into NCIC, along with misdemeanors, it would be beyond their manpower to go after all of those fugitives, unfortunately. They mostly go after the "big fish" (fugitive felons). By the way, leaving the state over a felony warrant causes UFTAP (Unlawful Flight to Avoid Prosecution) to kick in and I believe then the feds get involved (US Marshals), but I stand to be corrected. Over a misdemeanor this won't happen. There's no way to predict if Arizona would go through all the trouble to extradite someone over a misdemeanor warrant but they probably and most likely will over a felony warrant, with possible assistance from the feds.
