Web tips or smart phone tips are great ways to give anonymous information to crime stoppers.

But when there is urgency in tip information given to crime stoppers, i.e. a wanted person at a known location at the time of the tip.  Crime stoppers asks, please consider calling our 24/7 hotline: (325) 676-TIPS (8477).  You are still anonymous, and the urgency of your tip information can be communicated to the call taker and then to the appropriate Law Enforcement Agency.  Delay of web tips can be due to the time of day the tip was given, or lag time in receiving the tip information via the Internet. This can prevent the tip being acted on in a timely manner.  Therefore; calling our hotline can help to ensure a more appropriate response for these types of tips.

For any  crime in progress, please call 911. not crime stoppers, because by the time we receive the tip, the crime will be over and the perpetrators will be gone. 

Using the authorized means of providing a tip you will remain anonymous. We only want your information not your name.   

We encourage citizens in our community to give vital information helpful to law enforcement agencies in their fight against crime.

Tipsters will remain anonymous and are eligible to receive a cash reward up to $1000.00 if the information given leads to an arrest and charges filed on the person or persons responsible for any unsolved felony crime.

“Crime Stoppers accepts anonymous tip information about crimes in order to solve or prevent crimes. Users who communicate their own criminal threats through a Crime Stoppers program, are not considered to be tipsters. They are not eligible for rewards and are not immune from prosecution. These criminals who abuse the program in this manner are exempt from the promise of anonymity.”

Rewards are only paid out when your tip information actually helps to solve any unsolved felony crime, leading to an arrest and charges  filed on the person or persons responsible.  Rewards will not be paid out when the information is already known to the investigating agency or investigator.

YOUR TIP INFORMATION must play a key role in helping to solve any unsolved felony crime or the capture of a wanted felon.

A voluntary civilian Board of Directors with their Executive Director and a police coordinator administer the Crime Stopper program which depends on contributions from the public for operating revenues.
