[Code of Federal Regulations] [Title 14, Volume 5, Parts 1200 to end] [Revised as of January 1, 2001] From the U.S. Government Printing Office via GPO Access [CITE: 14CFR1203b.105] [Page 31] TITLE 14--AERONAUTICS AND SPACE SPACE ADMINISTRATION PART 1203b--SECURITY PROGRAMS; ARREST AUTHORITY AND USE OF FORCE BY NASA SECURITY FORCE PERSONNEL--Table of Contents Sec. 1203b.105 Use of non-deadly physical force when making an arrest. When a security force officer has the right to make an arrest, as discussed in Sec. 1203b.103, the officer may use only that non-deadly physical force which is reasonable and necessary to apprehend and arrest the offender; to prevent the escape of the offender; or to defend himself/herself or a third person from what the security force officer reasonably believes to be the use or threat of imminent use of non- deadly physical force by the offender. Verbal abuse alone by the offender cannot be the basis under any circumstances for use of non- deadly physical force by a security force officer.
