"with or without flash"

[arpege]

Probably a silly question, but here goes...
I keep hearing the term "with or without flash" in a lot of the police calls...Is that in reference to a gun being fired??
thanks,

possibly, could be several things though. You may have better luck asking this in your state's forum

Could it be in reference to the light bar on the squad car roof ?
As in , what sort of response is warranted .
Other than that , I'm thinking a crime scene where evidence is being photographed .
Is this a common term , heard daily ?

yes.. Daily..
I think that you might be right about the light bar. Arriving on the scene without lights or siren..
