By definition, once the crime crosses state boundaries, it is Federal.

Whether or not someone may be arrested in a foreign country (without
resorting to kidnapping) depends on international treaties.

If there is no treaty in place, the person will very probably not be
arrested. If there is a treaty, a process will have been specified for
extradition.
