North Las Vegas Police Department 400 Codes Practice Test

Which code denotes a person with a gun?

411A 414 413 415

Correct Answer:

413

Explanation:

When a responding unit needs to convey immediate risk, the code for an armed subject is used. This designation signals that a person is known or believed to be carrying a firearm, which implies a higher level of danger and requires a more cautious, immediate response. It prompts dispatch to route adequate backup, allocate proper cover, and establish a safer approach as the situation unfolds. The other codes point to different scenarios or situations without a firearm, so they don’t communicate the same level of threat. That makes the armed-subject designation the most appropriate one for a person with a gun.
