When can an arrest be made?

An arrest can be made at any time, which is why this is the correct answer. Law enforcement officers do not have time restrictions when it comes to making an arrest. They can execute arrests during the day or at night, as long as they have probable cause or a warrant when required.

The authority to make an arrest is not limited to specific types of crimes such as felonies; officers can also arrest individuals for misdemeanors. While arrest warrants provide legal backing and are often needed for arrests, there are circumstances where officers can perform warrantless arrests based on their observations or if a crime is committed in their presence. This flexibility is crucial for law enforcement to effectively maintain public safety and respond to incidents as they occur, irrespective of the time or severity of the alleged offense.
