The call came in from a local store reporting that a customer had used counterfeit money. When the responding officer arrived, store employees directed them to surveillance footage capturing the entire incident. After reviewing the video, the officer contacted the Real-Time Crime Center (RTCC) and requested assistance in identifying the vehicle involved in the fraudulent transaction.

RTCC analysts were able to track the vehicle and provide a clear view of its license plate. With that information, the officer conducted a DMV inquiry and identified the registered owner. Then, visiting the owner’s residence, they confirmed that the suspect seen in the footage was a family member.

Following this lead, the officer searched for the suspect in the ForceMetrics Velocity™ platform and verified that the individual matched the person who had passed the counterfeit money at the store. 

With the suspect identified, the officer forwarded the case to the detectives’ bureau for continued investigation and follow-up action.

By providing rapid access to integrated data, the Velocity™ platform allowed the officer to quickly locate and verify the suspect’s identity, eliminating guesswork and reducing the time typically required to connect vehicle information, personal records, and prior incidents.
