    Federal violations (crimes on federal property, some firearms violations, crossing state lines to evade capture, etc). The hostage situation need not be federal, but federal charges/investigation could have brought the feds there and the hostage thing just happened.

    You'd be surprised that most things COULD be made federal. For example, you steal a candy bar from your local stop and rob. A case could be made, being that the candy was probably made in another state, that you just interfered with interstate commerce... FEDERAL CASE! There is no way that anyone woulod take this federal, just an extreme example.

    Then there is the simple answer that we are often asked to help with non-federal cases.
