Answer:

you have reasonable suspicion that that individual has committed a crime

Step-by-step explanation:

if a store keeper says they were robbed by a caucasion Male wearing a red checkered shirt and blue jeans and white shoes . you have probable cause to stop, detain and identify the person. they can't stop everyone but they can use this description as a way of possibly identifying the thief
