“the defendant was under arrest from the time the officer took control of his movements and directed him to 'stand up.' " Id. By contrast, if the defendant is not actually under the officer's restraint or control, the arrest has not been effectuated. For example, a defendant was guilty of resisting arrest when, after being awakened in his bed and informed he was under arrest, he had a verbal altercation and "resisted arrest by threatening violence and using physical force in stiffening his arms and requiring the officers to coerce him by force.”
