I will agree with mjdewey on his post. State Fire Marshall's units also have powers of arrest.

This was a surprise for me as well. I always thought that they were the science guy type until I changed jobs and was around them often. I watched a guy try to carry out a meth lab from a closed fire scene one time. Fire Marshal asked him to stop, he did not at the marshal drew on him and put him in his place real quick.
