what r the codes that they use to identify a certain case?

diamondgirl,
Those are police codes which tell the officers
in the vicinity exactly what kind of crime is going down.
 
That could vary from state to state or even city to city. Some of them are pretty standard, like 10-4 is Acknowledgement, 10-7 Out of service, 10-10 Off duty. Here is a list from one website, but it is not mentioned for any specific city.

Except for on CSI, they use "4-19" as a dead body.

And of course 420 is drug-bust, I died laughing when I made the connection there. I am slow, leave me alone :lol:
 
Re: what r the codes that they use to identify a certain cas

I think in CSI: I've also heard them use 406 for breaking-and-entering. :p Thanks for the list, Dynamo! That will come in handy :D

Re: what r the codes that they use to identify a certain cas

Would the codes used in Nevada be similar to those used in Minnesota?
