A police officer pulls over a car with three men in it. The men all exit the vehicle and run in opposite directions. The officer engages in a foot pursuit and just prior being tackled, one of the suspects throws a bag away with a substance which is later found to contain heroin. The officer charges the suspect with possession of the heroin. The suspect argued in court because there was no probable cause for the arrest before the cocaine discovered, it was inadmissible as evidence. Based on this information, what statement below is TRUE regarding the arrest of the suspect?
◦ No arrest had taken place prior to being tackled because there was neither physical force nor submission to the assertion of authority.
◦ The officer may not arrest the suspect because the suspect did have the heroin on his/her person at the time of the tackle.
◦ The officer may not arrest the suspect because the officer does not have probable cause.
◦ The suspect had been "constructively seized" as soon as the chase began; therefore an arrest had taken place.
