Crime Stoppers Needs Your Help

Crime Stoppers is asking your help to solve the following crimes. If you know something, say something, as law enforcement cannot control crime without the help of the community.

St. Croix: Law enforcement needs your help to solve the murder of 35-year-old Robert O’Connor, III, whose lifeless body was found on December 9, 2003, at about 10:00 p.m. on Spring Gut Road. Let’s work together to bring closure to the family of Mr. O’Connor.

St. John: On Friday, January 13, a visitor dining at a restaurant in downtown Cruz Bay was asked by a black male to borrow his iPhone 4GS to make a call. After a few minutes, the visitor observed the individual walking away from the restaurant. When the visitor tried to approach the individual to retrieve his iPhone the black male took off running. Also, earlier that afternoon at about 3:20 p.m., a white iPhone 4S was stolen from the counter at Turquoise Turtle when the owner went to assist a customer.

St. Thomas: On Thursday, January 12, at about 6:30 p.m. a female was walking from the Dutch Reformed Church to Veterans Drive, and then to the area of USO where her vehicle was parked when she noticed two individuals walking behind her. When she looked back in the area of First Bank Express on the water front they turned to the side, so she could not get a good look at them. The female got in her car and was making a call on her cell phone when one of the individuals came to her driver’s door and tapped on the glass pointing at her cell phone. She then gave one of the individuals the cell phone and they fled the area.
