Can a Doorman refuse to let a police officer in a building if he does not provide a search warrant or some kind of document?

Asked by joe louis over 11 years ago

It depends on the circumstances. For example, if police received a 911 call from a building and the doorman tried to block the officers' entry, he would be arrested for obstruction.

I am considering purchasing a collapsible baton purely for self defense, it is however illegal in the state I live in, how strict will local police officers be if I carry this?

Asked by Aron almost 12 years ago

If it is a crime for you to carry the baton, then I would expect that you would be arrested.

Hello Bluesheepdog,
My question is: if I see children in a vehicle at the parking lot, is that something I can report on the emergency line? I don't agree with it, but uncertain if it is a cause the police is concerned about.

Asked by Irene Judith Hernandez over 11 years ago

If children are in danger, please call the emergency line.

I need to talk to a cop not to submit a crime but to see if this is a crime or to much punishment for my age.

Can the police stop cars with young kids in the front seat to tell them that it is not safe even though in NYS it is not illegal? This is a major problem where I live. Kids as young as 6 commonly sit in the front seat.

Asked by Jo about 12 years ago

No. A police officer may not forcibly detain someone without reasonable suspicion of an illegal act.

Your example would be akin to police officers stopping someone because they had a Big Mac and you believe fast food isn't healthy. Police officers have enough to do just enforcing criminal laws. They should not play nanny too.
