Original Note:
The person in the video was not arrested as OP claims. He was served with a section 60, as can be heard. A Section 60 is a power given by an Inspector or above which allows police officers to stop and search anyone in a specific area without needing to have reasonable grounds. https://www.lancashire.police.uk/help-advice/stop-and-search/section-60-without-suspicion-searches/#:~:text=What%20is%20a%20Section%2060,and%20Public%20Order%20Act%201994.
