What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

The Department of Justice (DOJ) currently administers an integrated crime

alert network and may use the network to provide to state agencies, law

enforcement, or the public information regarding criminal activity, crime

prevention, and missing or endangered persons. This bill requires DOJ to allow law

enforcement agencies to use the network to disseminate reports of certain

hit-and-run incidents to entities that DOJ identifies as persons who can make

public such reports. The bill also requires a law enforcement agency that receives

a report of a hit-and-run incident to use the network to disseminate the report if:

1) a person has been killed or has suffered great bodily harm; 2) additional

information is available about the incident that could identify the person or vehicle

involved; and 3) an alert could help avert further harm or could aid in apprehending

the person involved.
