Crime Stoppers Needs Your Help

Crime Stoppers is asking your help to solve the following crimes. If you know something, say something. Even information that seems insignificant may be just what law enforcement needs to solve these cases.

Hamilton Jackson Terrace Housing Community (Red Brick) in the vicinity of Building 5, where they found 16-year-old Kareem Crump, a resident of Estate Richmond, lying on the ground with several gunshot wounds. He was pronounced dead at the hospital. Please help police identify the person(s) responsible for this killing.

Community members can submit tips about these or any other crimes at www.CrimeStoppersUSVI.org or by calling 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
Your tips are completely anonymous, and the stateside operators are bilingual. If a tip leads to an arrest or the recovery of stolen property, illegal drugs, or weapons, the tipster receives a cash reward to be paid according to their instructions. Only anonymous callers to Crime Stoppers are eligible for these cash rewards. Please note that our technology makes it virtually impossible for anyone to trace your tip back to you. To learn how it works, visit www.CrimeStoppersUSVI.org .
Crime Stoppers thanks the individuals who provided the 613 tips to date that have helped police solve 74 crimes and to remove 43 illegal weapons from the streets. You have made a difference. Crime Stoppers USVI is run entirely by volunteers, and our rewards are financed by membership dues and sponsor contributions.
