It depends on the pregame instruction given by the CR to his ARs for the game.
The USSF Guide to Procedures gives instruction regarding the relationship between the members of the referee crew. One point in those instructions is that the AR is to provide information to the CR regarding fouls and/or misconduct that the AR believes that the CR was unable to observe themselves.
Personally my pregame always includes the reminder request that if an AR observes anything that I have not dealt with that in their opinion is clear misconduct they are to get my attention beckon me over and tell me what they saw, who did it and what they recommend.
