Florida Statutes Title XLVII. Criminal Procedure and Corrections § 941.35. Definition of “fresh pursuit”

The term “fresh pursuit” as used in this law shall include fresh pursuit as defined by the common law, and also the pursuit of a person who has committed a felony or who is reasonably suspected of having committed a felony.  It shall also include the pursuit of a person suspected of having committed a supposed felony, though no felony has actually been committed, if there is reasonable ground for believing that a felony has been committed.  Fresh pursuit as used herein shall not necessarily imply instant pursuit, but pursuit without unreasonable delay.
