The suspect was making it difficult for the people to capture them, so they continuously moved in order to make the people work harder to get them. They moved their entire body; every lim in every different kind of direction.

"Kicking" means to strike a person with your feet/legs.
"Twisting," in this context, means to move your body in a way that is difficult for a person to restrain.
Basically, the suspect kept fighting the detective to avoid being caught/arrested.
