In the event of a gunfire incident, officers and investigators need to respond to the scene quickly to effectively aid victims, gather evidence, and generate tactical leads. Oftentimes, these tactical leads will be connected to a vehicle that was present or otherwise associated with the incident, which is when an automatic license plate reader (ALPR) system becomes useful.
