clause two requires that fugitives from justice may be extradited on the demand of executive authority of the state from which they flee. the supreme court has held that it is not compulsory for the fugitive to have fled after an indictment was issued, but only that the fugitive fled after having committed the crime. the constitution provides for the extradition of fugitives who have committed treason, felony or other crime. that phrase incorporates all acts prohibited by the laws of a state, including misdemeanors and small, or petty, offenses.
