A custody warrant is a legal document issued by a court that authorizes law enforcement to arrest and detain an individual. It is typically issued when there is probable cause to believe that the person has committed a crime or violated the terms of their probation or parole. The warrant allows authorities to take the individual into custody, ensuring they can be brought before a judge for further legal proceedings.

HOWEVER - if there was some other reason for them to take you into custody (i.e.: you obstructed them - or were in the commission of a separate and un-related offense) they could take you into custody based on THAT situation, separate from the warrant service.
