Code 24 indicates which category?

• A. Are You In Trouble?
• B. Vagrants
• C. All Others Arson/Vandalism
• D. Suspicious Vehicle/Person

Answer: (D)

Code 24 is used for situations involving a suspicious vehicle or person. This label covers observations that may warrant investigation or extra caution but aren’t confirmed crimes yet—like a car parked oddly with the engine running, or a person lingering in a nonessential area. Using this designation helps units respond appropriately, monitor the situation, and follow up as needed without assuming criminal activity. Other options don’t fit this pattern. A message about distress or someone asking if they’re in trouble is a different kind of alert, not a generic suspicion. A label for vagrants targets a specific population, not a general suspicious activity. A broad arson/vandalism category is about crimes already recognized, not ambiguous, suspicious behavior. So, the best match for Code 24 is Suspicious Vehicle/Person.
