Crime Stoppers: Work for the Good of All

Crime Stoppers empowers law abiding citizens to make neighborhoods, schools and businesses safer by reporting information while remaining anonymous. If you know something, say something, as law enforcement needs to know what you know. Even the smallest bit of information may be just what is needed to arrest these criminals.

St. Croix: At approximately 8 a.m. on Sept. 26, five masked individuals robbed a 37-year-old father and his 19-year-old friend at gunpoint after he dropped his daughter off at the Williams Delight Head Start Center. The father was shot as he tried to elude the perpetrators. These robbers put innocent children’s lives in jeopardy by shooting towards the building the children were in. Help put an end to these terrorizing incidents. Tell us what you know so these thugs are quickly brought to justice.

St. John: On Sept. 20 about 11:10 p.m., police responded to a report of several shots fired in the area of the Valley, Enighed. Help police identify the shooters by telling what you know – such as the names of the person(s) involved or a make, model or color of any vehicle that was seen leaving the scene at a high rate of speed.

St. Thomas: On Sept. 24 about 6:40 p.m., officers were dispatched to Hospital Ground, near the Tickle Nickel Bar, for reports of shots fired and a man down. Upon arrival the officers found an unresponsive black male lying face up in the roadway bleeding from the upper body. The man identified as 27-year-old Avery Martin was shot multiple times and died at the scene. Help police identify and arrest the killer(s)

Let’s continue to work for the good of all by telling us what you know about these, or any other crimes, at www.CrimeStoppersUSVI.org or by calling 1-800-222-TIPS (8477). You can also text “USVI” plus your message to CRIMES (274637).
