Any peace officer or any person employed as guard or in a supervisory capacity on premises posted, as provided in section 1009, may stop any person found on any premises to which entry without permission is forbidden by section 1009 and may detain the person for the purpose of questioning and may question the person with respect to the person's name, address and business in that place.
