Careful how you use "per se". It's a pet peeve of mine.

The officer on the scene has the right to "detain" anyone for any reason to control the scene.
Detention can include subduing, handcuff, and imprisonment.
You are not required to be given any rights while under detention as compared with being under "arrest".
