Extradition only happens once one law enforcement agency has already arrested the accused and the state or jurisdiction that wants the accused then files extradition paperwork to go and get that individual from the holding agency. The arrest comes first. You cannot extradite someone that has not already been arrested.
But can NYPD go into Florida to make the arrest? Or do they cooperate with local FL law enforcement - and if so, wouldn't they need permission from the governor?
Yes - he can be arrested by either Florida law enforcement officials at the request of NY leo or by NY leo with the permission of Florida.
But neither of those things will happen - his lawyers will pre-negotiate his surrender so that he will fly to NY and be processed and arraigned, after which he will be released, so the whole question is moot.

I am pretty sure any multi/cross state crime involves the FBI but jurisdiction laws are weird from what I know. Anyone a lawyer?
