Police Arrest and Search

This text represents not only a BASIC TRAINING AID for the police academy but A COMMON-SENSE APPROACH TO the number one problem of the lone constable, sheriff, or private guard.

Statistically, if a policeman is going to be killed, it will almost of a certainty be during his attempt to make an arrest. Mr. Vallow is concerned here with alleviation of “the” occupational hazard of police work – the high death rate. He has a background of eighteen years of experience in the field, having worked with police organizations throughout the United States, England, France, Belgium, Holland, Germany, and Japan.
His book is a STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE ON HOW TO SAFELY AND EFFECTIVELY EXECUTE AN ARREST. All elements of the subject are carefully examined…

• The Control of an Arrest
• Basic Legal Elements
• Mechanics of the Serious Arrest
• Preliminary Search
• The Use of Restraining Devices
• Transporting the Suspect and His Complete Search
• Special Precautions and Procedures
