Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.
I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.
Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.
Its possible, but how valuable is that information to the officers? Not terribly valuable probably. The cops either know the names already, or have no way of knowing if the subject being arrested is giving them good info.
A more likely scenario would be the subject provides the officers with very detailed information on the dealers and is given a court date for some time in the future in exchange. Then the officers can determine if the information is good. If so, the officers can appear in court an explain to the judge that the subject was cooperative in an investigation and request favorable treatment of the informant.

I doubt there are very many auto parts that are illegal. What you do with them might be. For example, selling exhaust cutouts is legal. Running them on a street car is illegal. Running them on a track is legal.
Chances are any of the headlights in an autoparts store are legal for your area. If you have any doubts, contact your local department and talk to one of the traffic enforcement officers. He or she will be able to give you the exact information you are looking for.

Detectives can participate in a warrant service, and frequently do.
A high risk warrant service is usually handled by a SWAT team, which can have detectives on the team. Once the scene is secure, non-SWAT officers/detectives will frequently be responsible for the securing and documenting of evidence.

Will the foreign state extradite? If so, feel free to call the local authorities. If not, the local cops will not be able to arrest him for the warrant.

Do you ever feel sorry for the illegals you catch trying to cross the border?

What's the meanest thing someone's said to you on the phone?
Unlikely. It would indicate to me that the person overspent on education and might be a poor steward of the department budget.

First question - Absolutely. There are no prohibitions or requirements for any specific religion or absense thereof to be a police officer. Of course, any religious biases that prevent you from impartially and effectively enforcing the laws of your state should prevent you from pursuing a career in law enforcement. For example, if you believe sharia law trumps the laws of your state, you have no place in police work.
Second question - I sure hope rules are not changed to allow police officers to wear a hijab. Police officers are required to wear uniforms, and that means a standard way of dressing. Clothing visibly worn for religious purposes should not be part of a police officer's uniform. A law enforcement officer is expected to impartially enforce the law for all citizens, and when there is an obvious bias it undermines the public's trust in the officer and agency.
If you believe you should be able to wear a hijab at work, then law enforcement is not the job for you.
Keep in mind that the nature of law enforcement does not allow you to regularly take off holy days. This is the same for Christians have to work Easter, and Jews who work on Yom Kippur.
Faith is very important, and if your faith will cause you conflict in a law enforcement career, you might want to consider an alternative job path.

In a nutshell, the injured intruders would be transported to the hospital under police guard. When released, they would be arrested and transported to jail pending trial.
The homeowners would be interviewed on scene but not arrested or charged with any crime based on the facts provided.
If the intruders were killed, pretty much the same as above, but the deputies would be in the house a lot longer and the M.E. would respond and take custody of the corpses.
There are a lot of minute details that go into any investigation, especially major felony cases like this, but that is the quick and dirty.
