Section 84
Disposition versions
84. A peace officer may enter a place that is not accessible to the public if he has reasonable grounds to believe that a person there is committing an offence which may result in danger to human life or health or the safety of persons or property and that arresting him is the only reasonable means available to him to put an end to the commission of the offence.
Before entering the place, the peace officer shall, if possible, depending on whether persons or property need to be protected, give a notice of his presence and of the purpose thereof to a person in the place and state his name and quality.
