The Northern Nevada Regional Intelligence Center (NNRIC), a collaborative group of intelligence analysts from the Washoe County Sheriff's Office, Reno Police Department, and Sparks Police Department, has created an evidence portal which allows community members the ability to submit photos and/or videos from Saturday night's events in downtown Reno.

Witnesses who wish to provide photos and emails should follow this link. They will be asked to provide their mobile phone number (mandatory). Intelligence analysts would prefer the witnesses provide their names and email addresses as well; however, that information isn't mandatory.

Once submitted, the witness will be sent a unique link to their cell phone which they can use to upload assets.

This evidence portal will provide a central location for intelligence analysts to house and view the data in order to identify those who participated in the violence downtown.

NNRIC was established to collaborate in the collection, analysis, and dissemination of "meaningful actionable, strategic, and tactical intelligence" throughout the region. NNRIC provides the tools and expertise for all regional agencies to maximize their ability to anticipate, identify, monitor, prevent and respond to terrorism and criminal acts occurring in the Northern Nevada region and beyond.
