If two neighbors are arguing loudly late at night, which call type best fits?

• A. Noise Complaint
• B. Meet Officer
• C. Domestic Disturbance
• D. Found Property

Answer: (C)

When there is a loud, ongoing argument between people in a residence, the situation is best categorized as a Domestic Disturbance. This call type is used for fights or disputes that occur within a domestic setting and involve household members or people living together, where emotions are elevated and there’s a real risk of escalation. The priority is to send an officer to de‑escalate, separate the parties, and assess safety, since it goes beyond a mere nuisance and may require intervention. A Noise Complaint would be for non-confrontational or purely nuisance noises, without an active dispute needing immediate intervention. Found Property is unrelated to a dispute, and Meet Officer is for arranging a non-emergency meeting rather than responding to an active disturbance.
