Your police department receives a report that a bomb threat against a local businessman’s office was called in. The caller claimed that only 15 minutes remained until the bomb’s detonation. How should the department handle the situation?

No. It's from an online quiz that is made up of sample entrance exam questions from several jurisdictions.

Did I win?
