What should a calltaker do if they receive information about a crime via photo?

When a calltaker receives information about a crime via photo, transferring the information to the Real Time Crime Center (RTCC) is essential. The RTCC is specifically designed to analyze real-time data, including photographs, to assist officers in the field and aid ongoing investigations. The expertise and resources available at the RTCC allow for quick processing and dissemination of crucial information, which can significantly enhance the response to the crime in question.

While recording details and notifying a supervisor are important parts of the procedural workflow, they do not leverage the specialized capabilities of the RTCC. Submitting to the investigation team would also not be as immediate or effective as transferring the information to the RTCC, given that the RTCC can provide immediate support and mobilize resources, making it the most appropriate action in this scenario.
