AFIS speeds up Iowa fingerprint matching across agencies
Cedar Rapids officers view Iowa's Automated Fingerprint Identification System as a growing investigative tool. Since March 1 the system logged about 25 latent print hits and identified roughly 60 people who refused identification. AFIS helps link crime scene prints to arrests, with Cedar Rapids solving two cases, a garage burglary and a car theft, using the network.
