The passage uses both second-person ("You are under arrest!") and first-person ("I looked down") pronouns, but the core narrative perspective centers on the narrator's personal experience via first-person "I", while the second-person line is a direct address to the narrator. The primary narrative viewpoint is first-person as it focuses on the narrator's own observations and experience.
