What are SF's four authorities?

• A. Detain, apprehend, report, correct
• B. Detain, apprehend, report, arrest
• C. Detain, arrest, report, correct
• D. Detain, apprehend, search, report

Answer: (D)

Security Forces’ four authorities are the actions they’re empowered to use in the field: Detain a person temporarily, Apprehend to take someone into custody for investigation or transfer to the proper authorities, Search a person or area when authorized, and Report what you observed or found to the appropriate authorities. The option that lists Detain, Apprehend, Search, and Report matches these four precisely. Detain is a temporary hold for safety or investigation, apprehend is taking someone into custody with purpose, search covers inspecting for weapons or contraband under proper authority, and report ensures the incident and findings are communicated to the right channels. The other choices mix in terms that aren’t part of the standard four—such as including arrest or correct—which doesn’t align with how SF authorities are defined.
