Question by Buggs: Is there really such a thing as citizen's arrest?
I have thieves that come and steal bicycles, fishing poles, a bastetball, stuff like that. But they ignore the hundreds of dollars worth of tools. For obvious reasons, I"m quite certain the thieves are kids. Regarding this, I asked Y!A once before if I could use Mace on them if I catch them in my yard. Not such a good idea. Too many legal repercussions. But what about a citizen's arrest? Is there such a thing anymore? How does it work. These kids might be afraid of the police, but what's to keep them from running away from me and laughing all the way home. I can't afford cameras and security. At best, I can install a motion detector light, and scare the bejeebers out of them when the light comes on. I'm a pretty tough gal when it comes to protecting what's mine and if these really are kids, I have no problem facing them, after all it's MY yard they're stealing from. Any advice will help. I hate this feeling of helplessness.
Please look at my other question on Y!A about fences and fence posts.
