 So if you get arrested at a crime scene in Marble Hill (the Manhattan neighborhood physically located in the Bronx mainland), you'll be taken into custody by a Bronx cop, taken to the 50th Precinct in the Bronx, but then booked in Manhattan and tried in Manhattan's Supreme Court (but which is not where you'll appeal your conviction).

(This is probably to your advantage if you can't make bail and end up being held pending trial, since the Bronx courts are notoriously backed up.)
