“It’s not uncommon for someone to be handcuffed after a report of a gun, he wasn’t arrested.”

If you’re in handcuffs you are arrested, as in not free to go about your business.

I believe they call that "detained". He's cuffing you for his safety until things are sorted out.

I believe “detained” and “arrested” are two different things.
