Who can arrest me? |
All law enforcement officers (such as police officers, county sheriff officers, investigators in a district attorney’s office and highway patrol officers) can arrest you whether they are on or off duty. A probation or parole officer can also arrest you.
They can arrest you even if they do not have an arrest warrant if they have probable cause or good reason to believe you committed a crime.
If you commit an infraction, they may ask you to sign a citation or notice instead of taking you into custody. This is a minor offense, such as a moving violation, where the punishment usually is a fine. If you sign the citation you are not admitting guilt, you are only promising to appear in court. If you have no identification or refuse to sign, an officer may take you into custody. |
