Crime Stoppers: Make Our Islands Safer

Crime Stoppers empowers you to make our islands safer by reporting information while remaining anonymous. If you know something, say something as law enforcement needs to know what you know in order to control crime. Even the smallest bit of information may be just what is needed to identify the people who committed the following crimes.

St. Croix: On March 9, 2012, shortly before midnight, police responded to a call of shots discharged in Estate Castle Coakley near Shuama Gas Station. There they found two males who had been shot. Deneil Brow, a 22-year-old, was killed. The second victim survived but was unable to give a description of the shooter. Witnesses indicated that the two men were shot after an argument with the shooter. Tell us what you know about this shooting.

St. John: Between 6:30 p.m. Aug. 5 and 2:30 a.m. Aug. 6, a 1997 white Jeep Wrangler, plate No. TDR-172 was stolen from the parking lot of the Enighed barge ramp. Help police recover this vehicle by telling us what you know.

St. Thomas: On July 12 at 5:50 a.m., it was discovered that the rear western door of Touch Easy Java, located at Vitraco Park Mall, had been pried open by burglars. They also broke in to four video lottery terminal cash pans and stole an ATM from the business. Tell us what you know about this incident so police can identify the burglars.
