Which status does code 31/01 represent?

• A. Criminal Mischief
• B. Suspicious Person
• C. Criminal Mischief in Progress
• D. Prostitution

Answer: (C)

Two-part status codes combine the type of offense with its current state. The base code 31 means Criminal Mischief, and the suffix /01 signals that the activity is in progress. Therefore, 31/01 reads as Criminal Mischief in Progress, indicating an ongoing incident that requires urgent response. This contrasts with Criminal Mischief alone (not in progress) or with other offenses altogether, which do not convey that the mischief is actively happening. The in-progress status helps dispatch know to prioritize and allocate units accordingly.
