Concurring Opinion
DeBruler, J.
We do not, and are not asked by counsel, to decide whether probable cause alone in the absence of a showing of exigent circumstances is constitutionally sufficient to support a warrantless arrest for a felony. This is required in the case of a warrantless search. Chimel v. Calif. (1969), 395 U. S. 752, 89 S. Ct. 2034, 23 L. Ed. 2d 685; Paxton v. State (1970), 255 Ind. 264, 263 N. E. 2d 636. Neither do we decide whether the standards for probable cause sufficient to support a warrantless arrest are the same standards as required to obtain an arrest warrant from an independent and detached *33magistrate under I.C. 1971, 35-1-6-2, being Burns § 9-602 (1970 Supp.).
Prentice, J., concurs.
