““While it is not violative of the hearsay rule for a police officer to state that he made an arrest or a search and seizure as the result of information received or a complaint, the exception is limited to the statement of fact — for, whenever he is permitted to explain the nature of the information or complaint, he does not testify to a fact but to what someone else told him.” (p. 135.)”

Thompson“A judgment or ruling shall not be reversed by an appellate court on any ground unless in the opinion of the court after an examination of the entire record, it appears that the error complained of has probably resulted in a miscarriage of justice, is prejudicial to the substantial rights of the accused, or constitutes a substantial violation of a constitutional or statutory right.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“"In the instant case there was no opportunity for the defendant to cross-examine the informer who had identified him as the perpetrator of the crime.
