Code 4 (Wants and Warrants) indicates:

• A. Person/vehicle has outstanding wants/warrants; secure mic; dispatch additional patrols.
• B. Routine traffic stop.
• C. Request for information only.
• D. Premature release of a detainee.

Answer: (A)

Wants and warrants signaling means you’re dealing with a subject or vehicle that has outstanding wants or warrants, which flags higher risk and the need for precaution and additional resources. The best choice explicitly communicates that status and prescribes actions that match that risk: secure the radio mic to control communications and avoid leaking details, and dispatch additional patrols to provide backup or handle potential flight or resistance. This combination reflects the need for heightened awareness and a cautious, coordinated response when warrants are involved. The other options describe routine stops, information-only requests, or unrelated issues, and don’t reflect the increased risk or the resource adjustments warranted by known wants or warrants.
