“An arrest without a warrant can only be legally made if the person arrested has committed a public offense in the presence of the arresting officer or if the arresting officer has reasonable cause to believe that the person arrested has committed a felony. (Pen. Code, § 836; People v. Boyles, 45 Cal.2d 652, 655 [ 290 P.2d 535 ]; People v. Simon, 45 Cal.2d 645, 648 [ 290 P.2d 531 ].)”
