Armed/Potentially Dangerous Subjects Overview
- Focus on ensuring officer safety through classification of armed or potentially dangerous subjects.

- Obstructing and Resisting an Officer: Subjects who physically hinder or resist arrest.
- Assaultive: Subjects who have assaulted properly identified police department members.
- Prior Criminal History: Subjects with a history of violence who have made credible threats against officers.
Procedures for Classification
- Members believing a subject qualifies as armed/potentially dangerous must:
- Complete Interdepartment Communication, Form 191 P.D.
- Detail the request and circumstances justifying the classification.
- Use sources like police records and information from law enforcement agencies for support.
- The completed form must be forwarded through the chain of command for final approval by the Records Unit Commander.
Finalization of Classification
- Upon approval, information is sent to the Real Time Section for entry into REJIS, RMS, and the Perpetrator Information Center (PIC).
- Information classified as armed/potentially dangerous is confidential and intended for law enforcement use only.
- Classification details cannot be publicly released or included in reports available to the public.
Administrative Approval and Distribution
