Speaker 1: Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 2: Amazing scenes yesterday, Djokovic saying, can people who are dressed
Speaker 2: up as where's Wally?
Speaker 3: Get out? It's distracting for me who was going just
Speaker 3: us Where's Wally?
Speaker 2: And the other thing that happened there was a citizens
Speaker 2: arrest yesterday by one of the umpires.
Speaker 4: He got off the chair real knows more about it.
Speaker 5: Yes, at the end of the match, someone ran onto
Speaker 5: the court, grabbed one of I think it was Lee
Speaker 5: Zu's towel and tried to sprint away the chair. Umpire
Speaker 5: leaps down from his chair but they're very high chairs too,
Speaker 5: and chases him around the court and out of the
Speaker 5: out of the place. Ben Hill chase and apprehends him.
Speaker 3: What would in it like a citizen citizens arrest?
Speaker 5: And then they got the tower back?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 2: So do we know what is the legality around a
Speaker 2: citizen's arrest?
Speaker 3: All right?
Speaker 4: So I've printed this off that says the three essential
Speaker 4: elements of deforming a citizen?
Speaker 3: Right, So do you know what they are?
Speaker 4: Patsy, No, I need to be enlightened. Tell me, Jane, Well,
Speaker 4: it is such a funny. We all know that it exists,
Speaker 4: but it's not until now that I've actually thought what
Speaker 4: a bizarre.
Speaker 2: So that we can remember the citizens actually take the
Speaker 2: law into our own.
Speaker 4: Hands and just decide to arrest somebody. Yeah, okay. For
Speaker 4: number one, you must make it clear to the person
Speaker 4: that you're arresting them and the reason for the arrest.
Speaker 4: So if I'm arresting you in the street, I go, Christian,
Speaker 4: I'm arresting you because you've been driving a car that's unregistered.
Speaker 4: You are required to detain the person with reasonable force,
Speaker 4: not excessive force.
Speaker 3: Reasonable force sounds like a Steven Sigar movie.
Speaker 4: From an excessive force would be the sequel. And then
Speaker 4: the third one is, which is so confusing. The person
Speaker 4: must submit to your arrest. So does that mean they
Speaker 4: can just choose to go?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 2: Has anyone actually placed someone under a citizen's arrest? Or selly,
Speaker 2: because it's an incredible thing. You hear about it and
Speaker 2: obviously happened yesterday, but we'd love to hear an eyewitness
Speaker 2: support of actually have, especially if someone actually did it.
Speaker 3: Ian ever made a citizens arrest?
Speaker 6: Yes, yes, yes, Timble.

Speaker 6: criminal in our backyard. Told my mother to ring the police,
Speaker 6: handed me a cricket bat said this this like makes
Speaker 6: a movie. You whack him for something?
Speaker 3: You where is deputy? I depretize you with the powers
Speaker 3: bestowed in me.
Speaker 6: As he as he tackled into the ground, an illicit
Speaker 6: substance fell out of his top pocket. The police then arrived.
Speaker 6: The copper took one look at the blokes and said, mate,
Speaker 6: what are you doing here? Put him in the put
Speaker 6: him in the back of the bed. As it turned
Speaker 6: out it was a copper's brother in law.

Speaker 4: a citizen, you can still make it arrest.
Speaker 2: Anybody can actually have been accepted by the Immigration Department.
Speaker 2: I'm now just waiting for my ceremony.
Speaker 3: Forgot.
Speaker 2: It's happened literally about a week after we ended for
Speaker 2: the year. My wife and I did. Are yes, I
Speaker 2: got ninety percent. My wife got ninety five, which she
Speaker 2: loves that fact.
Speaker 3: Well done, Yeah, well done. I was so nervous.
Speaker 4: I was so ceremony or you still have to wait, still.
Speaker 3: Got to wait and see congratulation. You should have.
Speaker 1: Mentioned that thing.
Speaker 4: And the other thing they specify for making the citizens
Speaker 4: arrest is you have to actually catch somebody committing offense
Speaker 4: merely having a hunch that someone will would be doing it.
Speaker 2: Something about you, the face, whatever it is, the energy.
Speaker 2: All right, let's get some more stories about you making
Speaker 2: citizens arrest A J.
Speaker 7: Tst Off. I just want to make sure that that
Speaker 7: no one actually commits the citizens of the rest unless
Speaker 7: they are trained, unless like one hundred percent sure if
Speaker 7: the are in fear of their life or their partner's life.
Speaker 7: At the time I was doing corporate security, I was
Speaker 7: looking at Prince Frederick of Denmark before he got married
Speaker 7: to Mary.
Speaker 3: Slow this down. This is all incredible, right, this is great.
Speaker 2: First of all, thank you very much for considering one's
Speaker 2: safety right, because people could get her trying to do
Speaker 2: the right thing.
Speaker 3: So I appreciate that. But who which prince were you
Speaker 3: looking after?
Speaker 7: Prince Frederick of Denmark. He was over and over in
Speaker 7: Melbourne for the two five Flemington Cup.
Speaker 3: Gotcha, this Prince Vederick is one of his I was.
Speaker 7: Looking after himself and two of his entourage. One of
Speaker 7: his entourage had his phone stolen. I took chase. Uh
Speaker 7: if I started, Obviously the guy lost, explained.
Speaker 3: All right, John winning. Obviously he lost. You don't take
Speaker 3: on a j and you walk away.
Speaker 7: Now look, I'm no tough guy, but respectful, respectfully, I
Speaker 7: was trained. I did it without without without causing any
Speaker 7: damage to him. Among the citizens arrest. I made him
Speaker 7: sit down while I gave thee to call the police.
Speaker 1: But there's a bit more of that.
Speaker 7: You must see this person through to the length of
Speaker 7: the law. You must make sure he is arrested. You
Speaker 7: make sure, must make sure he is not harmed, and
Speaker 7: you know you've got to make sure that he is charged,
Speaker 7: and you've got to be present to that charging.
Speaker 3: My horse is about the race, Prince Frederick Waite, sorry,
Speaker 3: Frederick Off. We've got to go and god him. No, no, no,
Speaker 3: we just need to read him as rights. You could.
Speaker 7: If you give me a link. I also have art
Speaker 7: and I can prove that all this happened.
Speaker 3: This is.
Speaker 7: I have a better security where it's declassified. Now it's
Speaker 7: I'm allowed to talk about it, but don't be it.
Speaker 7: But please don't, please do not attempt to citizen arrest
Speaker 7: someone unless you know your rights, that your rights, you
Speaker 7: can get in more trouble than they can. So yeah,
Speaker 7: we don't only do it if you are half percent
Speaker 7: sure that this person needs to out of jail or
Speaker 7: needs to get arrested for the crime for that committed.
Speaker 2: Good advice feels like the first time this year had
Speaker 2: grownups called in all show. Feel free to do that anytime.
