§ 32-15. Temporary detention by police officer of an individual suspected of criminal behavior.

Latest version.

(a) A police officer may temporarily detain any individual under circumstances that reasonably indicate that the individual:
(1) has engaged in conduct prohibited under Section 32-14;
(2) has violated or is violating a condition of parole or probation; or
(3) has committed, is committing, or is about to commit a crime.
(b) A police officer may detain an individual under this Section only to determine the individual’s identity and the circumstances surrounding suspected criminal behavior. Any detained individual must truthfully identify himself, but must not be compelled to produce identification or answer any other question from any police officer.
(c) An individual must not be detained under this Section longer than is reasonably necessary to achieve the purposes of this Section. Unless the individual is arrested, the detention must not last longer than 60 minutes or extend beyond the place, or the immediate vicinity of the place, where the individual was first detained.
