Probably as a thank you for my 25 years of #OpenSource work, someone called the police on me and had be #SWAT'ed & #handcuffed while live-streaming t2 #Linux...
If they enter his home, and there is no evidence of a crime, then what is the basis for the arrest?
One thing is to investigate the truth of a call, another is to act on it as if it’s verbatim truth.
“Law enforcement officers typically have fairly broad leeway to place someone in handcuffs during an interaction if they believe that it’s necessary to protect themselves from harm. In those cases, they can do so even if the person being handcuffed hasn’t been arrested.”
You get handcuffed as a precaution. You do not have to be arrested. You can het handcuffed on a traffic stop if the officer decides they have cause to search your car. Etc.
Just because handcuffung is normal in the USA, that doesnt make it normal or sensible. No one gets cuffed in a normal traffic stop or house visit in the UK for example.
It’s not technically an arrest. In a high-stakes call, the police will typically detain everybody until they can figure out what’s going on. That means potential victims as well as potential attackers. It’s a safety measure.

Usually swat teams break a lot of your shit, maybe kill a baby, and then leave without arresting you.
Don’t need to arrest the suspect if they’re dead taps forehead
Oh AND leave you with the bill
Or toss a flash bang in the crib.
After breaking down the wrong door
Was he arrested? I don’t see follow up. It only says he was handcuffed which would be standard until they know what’s going on.

Handcuffs do not mean an arrest.
This is in Germany, idk what laws in the US have to do with this
OK, here it’s the other way around, you don’t normally handcuff somebody unless they are arrested.

Some cops will go a step further and shoot you first; as a precaution, of course.
Or your dog. Safety first!

Being detained while an investigation is conducted is not being arrested.
Factually inaccurate.
