Over the Walmart PA, 'Code Red' means there's a fire or explosion in the store. The number called immediately after it tells associates which aisle is burning so the right people grab extinguishers and the rest start moving customers out. Discreet on purpose — the goal is to mobilise staff without triggering a stampede.

“'Code Red, aisle 14' came over the speakers and every blue vest in the building started walking, not running, toward the front.”
