Is an arrest warrant required for an arrest?

California law allows a police officer to arrest a person even if he does not have the written warrant in his possession. However, if an officer arrests a person without a warrant, it typically means that the officer witnessed the crime. On the other hand, an officer may arrest a person without an outstanding arrest warrant in his physical possession. If the suspect requests to see the arrest warrant, the officer must make a copy available to him as soon as it is practical.
