By ROBERT E. LEE
(For lh. N. C. Bar Association)
Arrest By Officer
When may a police officer ar
rest without a warrant?
A police officer, sheriff, or oth-1
er peace officer may without 1
warrant arrest a person: “(a) j
When the person to be aiTested;
has committed a felony or
misdemeanor in the presence of
the officer, or when the officer
has reasonable ground to believe
that the person to be arrested
has committed a felony or mis
demeanor in his presence; (b)
When the officer has reasonable
ground to believe that the per
son to be arrested has commit
ted a felony and will evade ar
rest if not immediately taken in
to custody.”
A police officer need not be
concerned with whether the par
ticular crime is a misdemeanor
or felony if it is committed in
his presence. It is only where
the crime is not committed in
his presence that the police of
ficer has to remember whether
the particular crime is a felony
or a misdemeanor.
A police officer or a privefte
person, on equal terms, may ar
rest anyone who in his pres
ence is actually committing or
threatening to commit a breach
of the peace.
Jones informs a police officer
that a man two hours previ
ously had assaulted and robbed
him. Shortly afterwards Jones
points out to the police officer
the guilty person walking along
the street. May the officer ar
rest without a warrant the ac
cused person on the public
street?
Yes. The police officer not
only has a right but the duty to
arrest the accused. The officer
had reasonable grounds to be
lieve a felony had been commit
ted.
May a police officer lawfully
arresting a person without a
warrant in a public place search
the body and clothing of the
person at the time of the ar
rest?
Yes. If an officer has the
right to arrest, he has the ngm
to search the person arrested.
Any items found in the search
are admissable in evidence

against the accused.
I
Has a motorist been arrested j
if he has been stopped by a
police officer and given a “traf
fic ticket?”
No. Although the police offi
cer has the right to arrest him
on the spot for a traffic viola- j
tion committed in his presence,,
he has not done so.
The issuance of a so-called
“traffic ticket” is merely a ci- 1
tation of the offense handed to 1
the motorist. The police officer 1
has extended to the motorist the
courtesy of not arresting him on
the faith of his assumed agree- 1
ment to appear without being
reduced to the “custody and con
trol of the law.” The motorist is
merely told to come in at a
later specified time to be tried
for his violation, and the motor
ist does not submit to the cus
tody and control of the law un
til he makes this appearance, j
If the motorist does not ap
pear in court at the designated
time for the trial of his case,
there may be issued a warrant
for his arrest. If he is convict
ed, the cost of issuing and serv
ing the warrant may be assessed
to the motorist as part of the
court costs.
Does a law enforcement offi
cer have the power to stop any
motor vehicle for the purpose of
determining whether it is be
ing operated in violation of any
of the provisions of the Motor
Vehicle Act?
Yes. There is a North Caro-,
lina statute expressly conferring
upon him such power. He may!
“arrest on sight” any person j
found violating the Motor Ve- j
hide Act.
