Am I allowed to make a citizen's arrest (private person's arrest) in California? Is it really a thing? In this video, criminal defense lawyer Neil Shouse (a former LA prosecutor) discusses the law and answers these questions.
Specifically, Penal Code 837 authorized citizen's arrests in California if you observe someone commit a misdemeanor, or if you are aware of someone committing a felony. You are allowed to use only the force necessary to detain the person temporarily until the authorities arrive and take custody of the arrestee.
