Crime Stoppers Needs Your Help

Crime Stoppers is asking your help to solve the following crimes. If you know something, say something—you are helping to making a difference. Even the smallest bit of information may be just what law enforcement needs to solve these cases.

St. Croix: Many citizens, particularly seniors, are losing their money to scam artists, embezzlers, unregistered stock brokers, and unscrupulous salespeople. There is no such thing as a “free lunch.” If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Assume the worst, and get a second opinion from your attorney, accountant, or clergy person. This "white collar crime" may be nonviolent, but that is no consolation to the victims who go hungry or who lose their homes. Please work with law enforcement to reduce these crimes in our community.

St. John: Deputy Chief Foy is asking citizens to provide any information on individuals involved in the sale of illegal drugs, especially in the bar and restaurant districts of Cruz Bay and Coral Bay. Please provide as much information on these individuals as possible, including their names and aliases; the make, model, and license plate number of their vehicles; and the location where you observed them selling drugs.

St. Thomas: There have been a number of strong arm robberies targeting females and the elderly. Police believe that the robberies in the area of Sugar Estate, Polyberg and Barbel Plaza are being committed by the same person. Help law enforcement identify and arrest these robbers by telling us what you know. In addition, if you see any suspicious activities, please report them immediately by calling 911.

Please continue to make our community a safer place to live by submitting information on these or any other crimes at www.CrimeStoppersUSVI.org or by calling 1-800-222-TIPS (8477). Your tips are completely anonymous, and our stateside operators speak several languages.

If your tip leads to an arrest or the recovery of stolen property, illegal drugs, or weapons, you will receive a cash reward to be paid according to your instructions. Only anonymous callers to Crime Stoppers are eligible for these cash rewards.
