Warner v. State - CCA
If a person pulls free and runs away from a police officer after the
officer has grasped his arm and told him he is under arrest, under
PC §38.06(a) , he has not esacped from custody. Escape can occur only after an officer
has successfully restrained or restricted a suspect -- that is, when the officer's grasp has amounted to an arrest.
