What does code 10-60 indicate?

• A. Subject Negative
• B. Subject has Record, Not Wanted
• C. Subject Possibly Wanted
• D. Subject Positive Hit

Answer: (A)

This code reflects a negative result from a subject check. When an officer runs a name through the relevant criminal history and wanted-person databases, a 10-60 indicates that nothing positive was found—no outstanding warrants, no active record that would flag the person as wanted or problematic. It signals that, within the scope of the check performed, the subject is not known to be wanted or to have a record that would require further action. In contrast, a positive hit would mean the subject already has a record or is wanted, which would call for different actions. So the code for a negative check outcome is the best choice here.
