Cool..I was wondering about that. Id never heard of a state that
didnt have Citizens Arrest.

Just be aware that you CAN be charged with false arrest in some cases
if you are wrong.


Here in AZ you can make a citizen's arrest but the laws are so screwed up that
you'll probably end up in jail and sued yourself, not matter how right you were.
It's best if only one side is talking when the cops show up.


Better yet if you just point a gun at the guy and tell him to stay put
until the cops arrive. Don't call it a citizen's arrest.
