Real Time Crime Center
Real Time Crime Center (RTCC)
Our Real Time Crime Center (RTCC) is dedicated to empowering officers in the field with cutting-edge technologies to enhance policing efficiency and effectiveness. Our mission is to equip WSPD officers with the tools to respond swiftly to crimes in progress or recently occurred incidents. Through the integration of advanced technologies, we aim to tackle crime with greater efficiency, strategic intelligence, and a proactive focus on the safety of officers, citizens, businesses, and communities.
Camera Registry Program: Join us in our mission to keep Winston-Salem safe by participating in the Camera Registry Program. This initiative, in collaboration with local businesses and residents, allows you to share the locations of your security cameras with the WSPD. Rest assured, sharing your camera locations does not grant access to your feed, and there are no additional costs involved. Your information remains confidential, and you will only be contacted if a crime occurs in your neighborhood. To contribute to community safety, visit our website at https://connectwinstonsalem.org/ to register your security camera locations.
Camera Sharing/Integration: Enhance community security by integrating your camera system with the Winston-Salem Police Department. This partnership empowers you to determine which camera feeds to share and when, based on your preferences. With a small fususCORE device, seamlessly integrate your cameras without impacting your network. Sharing your feed can expedite response times and provide crucial details to first responders in emergencies. To learn more and purchase a fususCORE device, visit our website at https://connectwinstonsalem.org/.
See Something? Say Something!: Be a proactive part of crime prevention by reporting suspicious activities through our “See Something? Say Something!” initiative. Citizens can anonymously text tips, including information, photos, and videos, to 336-276-1717. Alternatively, individuals can choose to share their identity and the location of the reported crime. While this number does not accept voice calls and operates on a limited schedule, emergencies should be reported to 911. Additionally, information can be submitted to CRIMESTOPPERS at 336-727-2800, potentially qualifying for a reward.
Contact Information: For inquiries or assistance, please reach out to the Real Time Crime Center directly at 336-773-7720 or contact the Criminal Intelligence Bureau (CIB) Senior Office Assistant at 336-773-7800. The RTCC operates under the leadership of Assistant Chief J.E. Gomez and Captain M. Knight, with daily operations overseen by Lieutenant B.A. Jones.
