Crime Stoppers Needs Your Help

Crime Stoppers is asking your help to solve the following crimes. If you know something, say something. Even the smallest bit of information may be just what law enforcement needs to solve these cases.
St. Croix: Counterfeit $100 bills are circulating, and several unsuspecting persons have been victimized by this crime. The bills are very similar to real bills but do not have the color shifting ink and other security features. Let us know who is making and/or passing these bills. The minimum reward for an arrest is $357.
St. John: Police are requesting your assistance with a theft that occurred April 14 at K & S Caribbean LLC in Susannaberg, where someone broke into a business container and removed several custom-made handrails and sheets of boards. Police suspect that a truck was used to remove these items. The minimum reward for an arrest is $714.
St. Thomas: On July 12, police responded to shots fired in the area of Coki Point where two people were shot and later died of their injuries. Steve Tyson was arrested for these homicides. However, police want to know if others were involved. Please provide any other information you have on this case, no matter how minor it may be.
Community members can submit tips on 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. 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 USVI is run entirely by volunteers and is financed by membership dues and sponsor contributions. We need you to join us in the fight against crime, please visit our website and become a dues-paying member.
