Arresting is the process by which an officer or authority, and sometimes a citizen, can interrupt the activities of another individual ( arresting or stopping ) and placing that individual in custody. "you are under arrest" pertains to the order to stop, cease and desist, given by the authority. An arrest may also be made for a non-criminal reason, such as protective custody, either of the individual or that of the general public. The arresting authority may then exercise their discretion and lift the arrest, or after consultation, bind the individual over in custody pending a hearing, at which the facts are presented and counsel if retained can argue as to why the defendant should not be tried in court.
