Crime Stoppers Needs Your Help

Crime Stoppers needs your help to solve the following crimes. If you know something, say something, as law enforcement cannot control crime without your help. Even the smallest bit of information may be just what law enforcement needs to solve these cases.

St. Croix: Musa-Raji Sharmouj, age 19, was reported missing by his family on Apr. 9. He was last seen by family members around Apr. 6. Mr. Sharmouj is of Middle Eastern descent, he is 5’11" tall, has short black hair, sideburns, a beard, and hazel eyes. He was last seen in the area of Consumer’s Gas Station. Tell us what you know so law enforcement can find him and bring closure to his family and friends.

St. John: On Oct. 6, between about 8:30 a.m. and 11:30 a.m., a burglar entered a residence at 2U Estate Bellevue by climbing up onto the back porch and entering through the porch door. Once inside, the burglar broke into a locked bedroom and stole several pieces of jewelry, including a gold Gucci bracelet, a gold square-shaped ring with a diamond on top, a gold Omega chain and pendant, and a white G-Shock watch.

St. Thomas: On Jan. 5 at about 1:30 a.m., Shakir Richardson was killed in the area of the Joseph Gomez School lower parking lot. Tell us what you know about this murder so law enforcement can identify and arrest the killers(s) and bring closure to his family and friends.
