North Las Vegas Police Department 400 Codes Practice Test

Suffices in this coding system are used to quickly identify the category of an incident. The letter S is the designation for Domestic Violence, so it directly matches the DV category and flags the case accordingly for response, logging, and analysis. The other suffixes point to different areas—civil matters, gang involvement, or school violence—so they wouldn’t correctly categorize a domestic violence incident. Using S keeps DV calls clearly labeled and distinct from other types of incidents.
