Lyon County Sheriff Brad Pope’s Message of the Week 03/17/2023
Response times are an important factor in gauging our level of service provided to the community. I have shared the Lyon County Sheriff’s Office response times on several occasions, and I will continue to do so. After sharing the response times I have had several questions on what constitutes a priority one, two and three call. Since we will continue to share these numbers, I would like to inform the community what these types of calls are. (Disclosure: the priority can be manually changed depending on the crime type and in progress nature of the call for service.)
Emergency medical call, Suicidal subject, and Fire.
911 call, Injury accident, ADW, Air Incident, Bomb threat, Burglary in progress, Escaped inmate, Fight, Fire alarm, Hold up alarm, Home invasion, Kidnap, Missing Juvenile, Riots, Robbery, Sexual Assault, Shots, Traffic Stop and Train incident.
Accident without injury, Alarm, Assault, Attempt to locate, Battery, Assist other agency, Burglary, Child related crime, Counterfeit, Custody Dispute, Death Investigation, Domestic violence, Elder abuse, Embezzlement, Flood, Fraud, Harassment, Jail incident, Juvenile runaway, Mental health transport, Missing person, Narcotics, Neighbor Dispute, Open door, Prowler, Pursuit, Possible DUI, Search and Rescue, Stalking, Shop lifting, Suicide third party, TPO Violation, Unwanted person, Warrant service, and Welfare check.
