Scanner Code

My housemate and I decided to pull out the scanner last night because he saw a bunch of blue lights fly past him on his way to the store (I wanted some ice cream). I looked up the ten-codes for our state since I'm not fluent in coppertalk. We listened for a while to this traffic or that traffic, but nothing really interesting happened after a couple of people got arrested at the hardware store down the road from the original call that got us interested.

Looking at the ten-codes, though, one caught my eye. Whether it's because of everything that's in the news or just because it seems to rattle around in my head louder I'm not sure, but it's stuck. At least for the time being and I'm not quite sure what to do with it.

10-93 is the code for "riot". I'm not sure that the story with this is in the present, but more likely in the future. A near future, maybe. Maybe the beginning of a zombie apocolypse? The office calls in a 10--93, but it's not human?

I'm not sure if there's even anything there but a lot of research since I know nothing about how the police force works.

What phrases get stuck in your head that you scribble every where?
