Are you incapable of copying and pasting the relevant section that you claim says you may use unreasonable force?
I don't want your interpretation of what you think it says, I want the relevant section word for word.

No rush, I'll wait.

What if I chase them as they run off? This situation is different as you are no longer acting in self-defence and so the same degree of force may not be reasonable.

No. Are you?

Nonsense dummy.

Do you know what reasonable force is dummy?

It’s fairly clear your unreferenced snippet is talking about self defence.
You seem to be confusing common law with statute.

Wrong law dummy…. Titter.

Nope.

The Criminal Law Act 1967 does not give you a blanket right to chase a fleeing suspect with a weapon. While Section 3 of the Act allows for the use of "reasonable force" to prevent crime or make a lawful arrest, using a weapon against a fleeing person is extremely likely to be deemed disproportionate, excessive, and illegal.

Now you are getting there. Let’s see the case law that backs up the argument. Let’s see you apply an upheld conviction for excessive force in the apprehension of a criminal to mottie’s situation.

I’ll wait..
