improvement from a retired Chicago Cop
Chicago has not used most ten codes for over 40 years.
They prefer plain English when possible.
Here are the 3 ten codes used by Chicago.
10-1, officer needs emergency immediate assistance. This is the one that has been called when you see squad cars driving like maniacs coming out of nowhere.
10-4, I am a 2 man car and understand your message or assignment
10-99, I am a one man car and understand your message or assignment
The other codes you hear, like 19-P (paul) are ways of saying what happened to an assignment.
19 is other type of job, P is other police service (so 19-P is a catch all)
You can find all the assignment codes on line at the city of Chicago web site under police department directives.
The Fed, since the mas confusion on radios during 9/11, have been urging departments to change to plain language but the tradition, born of need when radio transmissions needed to be very short and were hard to hear, of 10 & 11 codes still holds on.

Most Police departments or agencies will use that same 10 or 11 codes nationwide. But some do use their own codes that are different from other departments, which could make it confusing or in some cases dangerous for other Officers from different departments. The code your refering to is the 10-50 code which could mean "car accident" or for example, "the suspect just 10-50'd into the brick wall on H street". The 10-50 code could also mean "under influence of drugs". So it really depends on what the local department uses, you could also do a search on Google or Yahoo for example, "list of police codes for Wisconsin state Police", or "list of police codes for the Green Bay Police department". Here is also a good link that list codes most widely used across the States. www.radiolabs.com/police-codes.html
