Spanish term

contar a detenido

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law (general) Traffic accident report from Puerto Rico
this phrase appears in a supplementary traffic accident report, in the section under "Detenido", referring to parties who are arrested as the result of a traffic accident.
The other elements in this sequence are as follows:

Numero de detenidos
Indicator de esclarecimiento multiple: M multiple C contar a detenido N no se aplica.

Any idea as to that "contar a detenido" might mean?

THANKS SO MUCH!
Proposed translations (English)
3 include the person under arrest
3 notify/tell person arrested

Proposed translations

3 hrs
Selected

include the person under arrest

As far as I can make out, it is referring to the codes they use:
M = Multiple
C = Count (as in counting numbers), but I think 'include' fits better here
N = Not applicable
Note from asker:
I think you're absolutely right. The sense here is "count", as in "include", all those detained. Thanks so much and also thanks to the other person who answered! So much appreciated!

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thanks so much for your suggestion. I think it does have to do with "count", given the context. That is, include the number of detainees. And I think you're absolutely right, "include" is the verb of choice."

notify/tell person arrested

without further context it's difficult to know if this fits, but could be possible as another meaning of contar
