I don't know of any neighborhood watch that uses direct intervention. They're supposed to immediately notify police of suspicious behavior and that's it. They aren't some sort of security force. They're a bunch of civilians patrolling their own homes. At most they'd be able to use the power of citizen's arrest like any other person.

Again, simply following someone on a public street isn't illegal. Foolish and irresponsible, depending upon the situation.
