What does radio code 921 mean?

• A. Go to Your Office
• B. Car Prowler or Clouter
• C. Drunk on Street
• D. Permission to Communicate with Field Unit Granted

Answer: (B)

In the 900 series, each code quickly identifies a specific type of incident. A signal for 921 is used to indicate a car prowler or clouter, meaning someone is attempting or committing auto burglary or breaking into vehicles. This designation helps officers prioritize and respond to vehicle-crime situations with the right approach and resources, such as checking for unlocked doors, looking for a suspect near cars, and coordinating a rapid response. Other options describe actions or situations that aren’t the defined 921 call: going to your office isn’t a vehicle-crime code, granting permission to communicate isn’t the code’s purpose, and being drunk on the street is handled under separate public intoxication or welfare checks rather than this vehicle-prowler signal. So the best fit is car prowler or clouter.
