15to the trial or sentencing hearing. If during this time period
16new or additional information becomes available concerning the
17minor's conduct, the court may conduct a hearing to determine
18whether the minor should be placed in a detention or shelter
19care facility. If the court finds that there is probable cause
20that the minor is a delinquent minor and that it is a matter of
21immediate and urgent necessity for the protection of the minor
22or of the person or property of another, or that he or she is
23likely to flee the jurisdiction of the court, the court may
24order that the minor be placed in detention or shelter care.
