Detention Permitted; Standards

Whenever a peace officer encounters any person under circumstances which reasonably indicate that such person has committed, is committing or is about to commit a criminal offense, the peace officer may detain such person. COMMENT: Chapter 30, the Stop and Frisk Act, has been transferred directly from §§ 735 through 736.4 of the Penal Code -- with only minor, non-substantive changes to fit with the structure of the Code.
