Which code corresponds to Burglary of a Residence (Just Occ)?

Exact code must reflect both the location and the timing of the crime. Burglary of a Residence (Just Occ) clearly communicates that a burglary at a residence has just occurred, which signals immediate urgency to responders and ensures the call is treated with the appropriate priority. The addition of “Just Occ” distinguishes it from a general burglary category, which could imply a past event or lack of immediacy. The other options either refer to different targets (coin-operated machine), or to a different type of alert (prowler), or omit the time-status qualifier, making them less precise for this scenario.
