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 identify and arrest these criminals.

St. Croix: There have been eight murders so far this year on our island. Regardless of the circumstances surrounding these deaths, they were senseless killings, and the perpetrators are still free. Help us identify the killers and bring closure to the families and friends of the deceased.

St. John: On June 4 at 4:57 a.m. at Sapphire Breeze Villa at Estate Bethany, an armed robber forced his way from the patio into the master bedroom. After a brief scuffle with the father, his three children entered the bedroom. The intruder waved his gun, demanded money, and became enraged when he discovered there was little to be had. He then grabbed the victim’s daughter by the arm and instructed her to show him out of the house. The intruder, described as a black male, short hair, 5’9” to 6’ tall wearing a black T-shirt, black pants and a mask, took $10 from the daughter before leaving. If you saw anyone that morning or the night before fitting this description, please tell us so VIPD can put him behind bars.

St. Thomas: On May 20 around noon, the residents of 173-A-10 Anna’s Retreat locked and secured their home. Upon their return around 3 p.m., they discovered their home had been burglarized. The burglar(s) entered the home through the kitchen window and stole a number of items such as jewelry, crystal, rare coins, a laptop, a Wii game console, and a 46" flat screen television. The burglar(s) exited through the kitchen door.
