We enter the New Year with many transitions taking place within government, and Crime Stoppers USVI would like to thank the community of law enforcement agencies and its media helpers for helping to make the U.S. Virgin Islands a safer place to live, work and raise our children.

Crime Stoppers utilizes a multimedia approach for solving crime, designed to gather evidence and information of unsolved crimes through the cooperation of local media. An unsolved crime in each island district is selected by the V.I. Police Department and sent to Crime Stoppers to get the ball rolling.

The announcements you hear weekly are the Crimes of the Week, for which law enforcement relies on your input.

The catch phrase you will often hear is, “If you know something, say something.” That little bit of “something” may result in a reward to the individual supplying the information needed to solve the crime.

The tipster’s identity remains anonymous.

If you have a crime you would like us to feature, email us at [email protected].

Tell what you know about any crime at www.CrimeStoppersUSVI.org or call 1-800-222-TIPS (8477). You can also text “USVI” plus your message to CRIMES (274637). All three methods will keep you anonymous.

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. Crime Stoppers USVI is run solely by volunteers.
