Hola,
Gracias para su respuesta. Lo siento, I should have been more clear regarding the context. The source text is a court case summary, sin embargo, Deputy Dove is a patrol officer (como policía). La palabra "polysemy" es nueva para mi. I think I understand it by the way you used it. I will look it up though.
¡Tantas cosas para aprender!
