If you are arrested for a crime in a different county, the county you're arrested in will run your record and discover that you are on probation. There's a very high possibility they will contact your probation officer, who will then recommend you be charged with probation violation.

It is, also, most likely that a condition of your probation is to contact your PO when you're contacted by law enforcement. Not doing so is a violation of probation.

The most likely result is that you'll be charged for the new crime in the new county, and charged for the probation violation in the county in which your probation office is located.

Keep in mind that the probation office holds jurisdiction over the entire state; not just the one county.
