Explain why it is difficult to determine when exactly a person has been formally arrested.
What will be an ideal response?
Answer should indicate that, unlike on television, arrests do not necessarily involve drawn weapons, handcuffs, or the officer stating “you are under arrest.” According to the courts, a person is under arrest when a reasonable person believes she or he is not free to leave. A lawful arrest requires either a valid arrest warrant and/or probable cause that the person committed the crime.
