The dispatcher and police sergeant make the decision based on the available information and their experience. Calls are given a priority code ranging from 1 to 9. An example of a priority 1 call would be a call where there are injuries, death or there is a threat of injury if the police don't respond quickly. An example of a priority 9 call would be a citizen who just needs to ask a police officer a question. Many times calls require two or more police officers and there may be several of these types of calls at one time.
