Do you know what you are doing? In some states, making a citizens arrest for anything but a felony can make YOU liable for a felony such as kidnapping or unlawful restraint. This is not the same as restraining someone or holding them until authorities arrive. CHECK OUT YOUR STATE LAW. If you don't know it, you have no business even uttering the words "Citizens Arrest" Play by the rules. If you don't know the rules, how do you expect to play? Mikey at trsvax
