    Rofl, if this isn’t bullshit, those cops must have either been bored out of their minds or just had a good sense of humor.

    This is the law enforcement equivalent to a little kid yelling “BOO!” at you, and you pretending to be scared.

    “Whaaaaat, you’re arresting -meeee-?!?! Oh noooooo!”

      You can inform a police officer that he or she is under citizen arrest. You can call the police and have an officer come out with the paperwork, which YOU have to sign. If the arrest is false, YOU are liable both criminally and civilly.
