Code 10-66 is associated with which subject category?

• A. Observation Category
• B. Parole Category
• C. Charged Category
• D. Prohibited Category

Answer: (A)

Code 10-66 sits in the Observation Category because the 10-code system groups communications by the type of information being conveyed. This particular code is used to note observable details or events seen or heard on scene, rather than dealings with a person on parole, someone who has been charged, or items or activities that are prohibited. The Observation Category is meant for recording what is observed, which is why 10-66 fits there. If the discussion were about parole matters, it would fall under the Parole Category; about someone charged, under the Charged Category; or about prohibited items or actions, under the Prohibited Category.
