Which code indicates Burglary of a Motor Vehicle in Progress?

The code uses a structure where the burglary family is indicated, then a sub-status and target type are added with a slash and a letter. Here, 41 identifies burglary, the 11 shows the in-progress status, and the suffix V specifies a Vehicle. Put together, 41/11V means a Burglary of a Motor Vehicle in Progress. The other forms either don’t include the Vehicle suffix, use a suffix that points to a different target or status, or refer to a different burglary scenario altogether, so they don’t convey an active vehicle burglary. Hearing 41/11V signals an ongoing vehicle burglary requiring urgent attention.
