I have a scene in which two police officers talk to each other over the radio. One is a Lieutenant (Carvalho) manning the front desk and the the other is a patrolman (Alvanas) who is in the station garage. This is a small town police force, it that makes a difference.
Here is part of the scene:
"Alvanas here, Lieutenant."
Carvalho turned down the music to hear. "Yes?"
"I'm out here in the garage and, well, you're not going to believe this."
"What is it, Tom?"
Alvanas paused. "You better come out here."
"I'll be right there." Carvalho rushed out the front door...
Would the patrolman identify himself by his last name or is there typically another moniker like "Adam-12"?
Would the Lieutenant use the first name of the patrolman or his last (or other)?
Do I assume correctly that each statement does not need an end word like "over" (which seems annoying)?
Unfortunately, I didn't watch a lot of police shows when I was younger.
Thanks.
