California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Roston, A136743 (Cal. App. 2014):
It is questionable whether the "fresh pursuit" doctrine would apply in the present case, because "there was no immediate or continuous pursuit of the [suspect] from the scene of a crime." (Welsh v. Wisconsin, supra, 466 U.S. at p. 753.) There was an immediate, continuous and expeditious investigation that led the police to appellant's home within a short time, but the "pursuit" characterization is not accurate.
