Or run. Running away is not against the law. Let them catch you, though if they do they might bring a beating with it

Resisting arrest.

Ok, fair.

Though here in Europe running is not against the law. Only if you use force against an officer you break the law.

In the US, running away from a detainment is a crime. This is why the police always make the statement "stop resisting". If they have nothing else, they will charge you with resisting arrest. You can't legally address an unlawful detainment or arrest by running away from an officer. You can only address it in civil court later.
