No, but a person can be forced to cooperate by means of a court order. There is also the possibility that the person's refusal could result in their being charged with obstruction of justice which pertains to hendering an official investigation, witholding evidence, and so forth.
Of course any person refusing to cooperate with a court order can be (and will be) charged with contempt and find themselves a "guest of the state".
The answer above is completely wrong, any citizen in the united states DOES NOT have to cooperate with police in any way, shape, or form, by the Fifth Amendment. You don't have to say a single word.
5th ammendment- No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation
YOU, as an individual, can't do anything except cooperate with the investigation and with evidence, reason and an alibi, if you are innocent, the police will come to the same conclusion.
If an investigation is initiated, the police will hold onto that firearm during the course of the investigation.
The criminal refused to cooperate with the police
to facilitate would be to make something easier, so you could go with "obstruct" or "hinder" in a sentence. if you dont cooperate with the police you could be charged with Obstruction of Justice. If you are wasting the cop's time, you are hindering a police investigation

The police conducted an investigation.Their investigation led to an arrest.
Gordon Kahn
An investigation carried out by the police into some sort of crime.
A police investigation can last as long as law enforcement believes it is necessary. Many investigations have gone on for decades.
To prosecute a thief, you would need to report the theft to the police, provide any evidence you have, and cooperate with law enforcement throughout the investigation and legal process. The prosecutor will then take over the case and bring charges against the thief in court.
