What is the name of your state? Texas. Art. 14.03 of the Tx code of criminal procedures allows for a warrantless arrest in the cases of assault, where bodily injury is committed, and there is the belief there is a threat of continued violence. The question is, lets say a victim is assaulted and calls the police. The suspect leaves prior to there arrival and the report is made. The suspect returns several hours later and the victim calls back reporting this. What would be the longest permitted time span to pass where an arrest could be made without obtaining a warrant.
