Sec. A18-13. Power to arrest.

The Public Health Officer and such subordinates as he may designate may arrest a person without a warrant whenever he has reasonable cause to believe that the person has committed a misdemeanor in his presence which is a violation of any statute or ordinance which the Public Health Officer is empowered to enforce. In any case in which a person is arrested pursuant to the provisions of this section, and the person arrested does not demand to be taken before a magistrate, the Public Health Officer or his subordinate shall prepare a written notice to appear and release the person on his promise to appear as prescribed by the Penal Code.
