Crime Stoppers empowers you to make your neighborhoods safer by reporting information while remaining anonymous. Let’s work together to safeguard ourselves. If you know something, say something – as law enforcement needs to know what you know.
St. Croix: Between Jan. 28 and Feb. 4, several nighttime burglaries have occurred in Estate Calquohoun, Marley Housing Community, Estate Sion Farm and Estate Grove Place. Although no one has been seriously harmed, valuables have been stolen. If you have seen anyone lurking near your neighbor’s home, let us know what you observed.

St. John: On Jan. 20 police responded to a break in at Love City Mini Mart in Coral Bay. The thieves broke in and stole several phone cards and a large amount of money. Based on information gathered, it was two males that committed this crime. Please help police identify these thieves.
St. Thomas: On Feb. 4 at 7:55 p.m., a man walking towards the area of Ivan Bar in Estate Smith Bay was approached by two black males. One pointed a gun at him and told him to turn over everything he had. The victim tried to grab the handgun and, during the struggle, the victim was shot once in his upper chest. The gunman then fired eight to 10 additional shots, but missed. Both suspects then fled the area on foot. Help police identify these dangerous men before someone gets killed.
