In making arrests, members shall strictly observe the laws of arrest and the following provisions:
A. 
The arresting officer shall employ only such force and restraint as is necessary to assure the safety of other persons, other police officers and himself.
B. 
Every member shall refrain from using unnecessary force or violence in making arrests and must not strike a prisoner or any other person except when necessary in self-defense or to overcome actual physical resistance in making an arrest. However, he must be firm, resolute and energetic, exercising the necessary means to perform his duty properly. When it is necessary to use force, the circumstances shall be included in the arrest report on the case.
C. 
The arresting officer is responsible for the safety and protection of the arrested person while in his custody. He shall notify the transportation officers of any injury, apparent illness or other conditions which indicate that the arrested person may need special care.
D. 
The arresting officer is responsible for the security of the personal property in possession or under the control of the arrested person at the time of arrest. Except for vehicles, this responsibility transfers to the officer accepting custody of the arrested person.
Members and employees shall not communicate any information which might assist persons guilty of criminal or quasi-criminal acts to escape arrest or punishment or which may enable them to dispose of or secrete evidence of unlawful activity or money, merchandise or other property unlawfully obtained.
Members shall arrest perpetrators of assaults, assaults and batteries and criminal offenses directed against them. The perpetrators shall be charged accordingly. Whenever it is impossible to consummate the arrest at the time of the offense, the member shall make a complete report of the incident to his commanding officer, with a request that he be allowed to make a complaint in the proper court at the next session. A warrant which may be issued as a result of filing such a complaint shall in no case be served by the aggrieved member.
