Emergency. Use red lights and siren
Information only, an LASD vehicle pursuit is approaching or in the station area
No further action needed
Stake out. All units stay away

The correct answer is: Information only, an LASD vehicle pursuit is approaching or in the station area

CODE 5P pertains to a situation where information is being communicated that an LASD vehicle pursuit is approaching or is already in the station area. This code is significant as it alerts units in the area to be aware of the pursuit without necessitating immediate involvement or action. It serves to ensure that law enforcement personnel are informed and can prepare or respond appropriately if the pursuit affects their area of responsibility, promoting safety and coordination during evolving incidents. The emphasis is on situational awareness, allowing units to maintain a level of readiness without engaging directly unless directed to do so.
