Answer 2

Rampart is the division where Friday worked out of.

We caught it, we'll close it means they will investigate the case and see it through

Answer 3

In human speak, this police radio jargon means:

Rampart (division) is completely overloaded with calls for police response right now.

This call was diverted to our division. Therefore, we took the call. We'll investigate & follow it through to closure/completion.

Answer 4

Rampart is the hospital, I think.
