O.C.G.A. 17-4-60 (2010) 17-4-60. Grounds for arrest

A private person may arrest an offender if the offense is committed in his presence or within his immediate knowledge. If the offense is a felony and the offender is escaping or attempting to escape, a private person may arrest him upon reasonable and probable grounds of suspicion.

Then on that point the burden will be on the defense.

Yeah I know, Ive read it too. Like I said, its gonna come down to what they can prove and what a jury thinks is reasonable and probable grounds to suspect he committed a felony and not just trespassing.
