Sharon Stratton Policing Domestic Violence 49, Colin Rogers Leadership Skills in Policing 42, Colin Rogers Crime Reduction Partnerships 49, The necessity test has been held to have been incorrectly applied in the following instances, which are therefore unlawful arrests: It is an offence at common law, not codified , so it cannot be found in any act of Parliament. The power of arrest in relation to breach of the peace is available to anyone regardless of whether they are a Constable or not , who may arrest without warrant: However, the Court of Appeal laid down the following conditions: There are few powers of arrest without warrant where an offence is not either known or suspected to have been committed.
A Constable may arrest a person:. The Common Law has most recently affirmed the use of force in R v Griffiths , [76] which states that reasonable force is acceptable when there is " an honestly held belief that you or another, are in imminent danger, then you may use such force as is reasonable and necessary to avert that danger ". A more general explanation of what is reasonable was also made four years prior in under Collins v.
Wilcock 1 WLR DC, which stated that a Constable may use force not otherwise covered by legislation or other law if it they "had been acting within the bounds of what was generally acceptable in the ordinary conduct of daily life".
The Blackstone's Practical Policing Series covers a range of topical subjects of vital importance in today's policing arena. PACE: A Practical Guide to the Police and Criminal Evidence Act Public Order. Law and Practice. $ . The second part covers 'Public Order Policing in Context' and looks at considerations in Law and Practice Blackstone's Practical Policing.
The European Convention on Human Rights further states: Deprivation of life shall not be regarded as inflicted in contravention of this article when it results from the use of force which is no more than absolutely necessary: The Criminal Law Act allows any person to use reasonable force in the circumstances in the prevention of crime, effecting or assisting the lawful arrest of offenders or suspected offenders or of persons unlawfully at large.
The Police and Criminal Evidence Act provides a power for a Constable to use reasonable force when they are lawfully using a power under the same act. The Criminal Justice and Immigration Act further clarified the use of force as per the above, but also reiterated force may still be reasonable if it was influenced by an honestly held, albeit mistaken belief.
A constable and any other person has the power, at common law , to enter premises to deal with or prevent an imminent breach of the peace. A constable also has the power to enter any place in order to carry out a search under section 47 of the Firearms Act However, if a constable wishes, for one of the reasons given below, to stop all vehicles or certain vehicles selected by any criterion, then they must do so under the power granted by section 4 of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act If an officer below the rank of superintendent gives authorisation, it must be referred to a superintendent as soon as it is practicable to do so.
If it appears to an officer of the rank of superintendent or above that a road check ought to continue beyond the period for which it has been authorised he may specify a further period, not exceeding seven days, during which it may continue.
In addition to the powers to conduct road checks given above, the police have a common law power to set up road checks and search vehicles stopped at them in order to prevent a breach of the peace. Authorisations apply to one locality only, last for 24 hours, and the inspector who gives them must inform a superintendent as soon as possible. A Constable has the power to direct a person to leave a place if he believes that the person is in the place prohibited by a court order or condition [88] as provided by the Section of the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act A further power to direct someone to leave exists under Section 35 of the Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act This allows a Constable the ability to direct a person to leave if he reasonably suspects the behaviour of the person is causing or likely to cause members of the public in the locality being harassed, alarmed or distressed or that the person will contribute in the locality of crime or disorder.
Other reasons to direct a person or persons to leave an area are also available, e. Section 61 of PACE allows a Constable to take a suspect's fingerprints without consent when he suspects someone has or is committing an offence and there is a doubt about the suspect's name [89].
