 | | An arrest warrant is issued by a magistrate upon a showing that probable cause exists to believe that the subject of the warrant has committed an offense and thus the warrant primarily serves to protect an individual from an unreasonable seizure. |  | | Accordingly, the judgement of the Court of Appeals is reversed, and the case is remanded to that court for further proceedings consistent with this opinion. |  | | Concluding that a search warrant must be obtained absent exigent circumstances or consent, we reverse the judgement of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit affirming petitioner's conviction. |
