Is there a law against doing an unwarranted citizens arrest or questioning a person running through neighborhood?0

Yes. Here you go.

Ga law: it is a violation § 16-5-41 (a) A person commits the offense of false imprisonment when, in violation of the personal liberty of another, he arrests, confines, or detains such person without legal authority.

If the victim is killed then that is a violation of § 16-5-1(c) A person also commits the offense of murder when, in the commission of a felony, he causes the death of another human being irrespective of malice.

Dude, you’re chasing a non-existent squirrel that the media painted a picture of. Arbery was not arrested, nor was he confined, nor was he detained. I did, however, see Arbery rapidly charge another man and attempt to wrestle a loaded shotgun from him.
