No, there is NOT a way of restraining someone who wants to walk away
except to restrain them by applying greater and opposite force.

They have these things called handcuffs.....

Ever try to put handcuffs on someone who doesn't want to cooperate? While
keeping them from grabbing your service weapon out of the holster and
shooting you with it?

Makes me laugh
when I see cop shows where the perp is held at gunpoint. Unless he's an
idiot, he knows that the officer is not allowed to shoot. He can keep
walking away until, of course, he's tackled. Oh yes, presumption of
innocence goes beyond arrest; guilt's a matter for the courts to decide,
so your MAYBE is always a maybe, even when they're wearing six pairs of
designer jeans.

Then there's the car chase controversy....
