DataWorks fingerprint scanner (Dilworth Police Dept.)
DILWORTH, Minn (KFGO) – Dilworth Police have purchased a portable fingerprint scanner to help with the identification of suspects during investigations.
The department said people attempting to evade arrest often give false names, sometimes even the names of friends and family which can result in the identification of the wrong person.
The DataWorks portable scanner, which has a secure link to Minnesota BCA and FBI databases, will assist in quickly and correctly identifying subjects that the department said are wasting valuable time and resources, the department said in a social media post.
Dilworth police said they have the first DataWorks scanner in the FM Metro area.
