Crime Stoppers Seeks Community’s Help
Crime Stoppers is asking the community to help the VIPD solve the following crimes, and reminds everyone that any information, no matter how insignificant, may be just what the police need to solve these cases:
St. Croix: Police are seeking any information concerning the shooting death of O’Neal “Tully” Mulley, which occurred on Tuesday, July 21, 2009 at approximately 10:45 p.m. Mulley, a 35-year old black male, suffered multiple gun shots to the body while in the area of the Frederiksted Vegetable Market.
St. John: There has been an increase in burglaries in the Enighed and Chocolate Hole Areas of St. John. Police are requesting your assistance in identifying any suspicious individual(s) and vehicle(s) which may have been observed in those areas.
St. Thomas: Police are asking for your assistance in capturing one of the V.I.’s most wanted, Johverne Meyers. Meyers is a 25-year old black male wanted in connection with an assault on a male and female in the vicinity of Holy Family Church in Charlotte Amalie on September 26, 2008. If anyone has seen him or knows his whereabouts, please let us know. He has been known to frequent the Tutu High-Rise area and may have short-cropped hair at this time.
Territorially: VIPD and other Law Enforcement agencies are requesting your help identifying those areas where gang related activity may be present and the names of the individuals involved. If you know of anyone involved in this activity, please let us know.
Community members can submit tips to Crime Stoppers USVI at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477). The tips are completely anonymous, and the stateside operators are bilingual. Tipsters can also submit tips online at www.crimestoppersUSVI.org or by texting “USVI” plus your message to CRIMES (274637). If a tip leads to an arrest or the recovery of stolen property or illegal drugs, the tipster receives a cash reward to be paid according to their instructions. Only anonymous callers to Crime Stoppers are eligible for these cash rewards.
Crime Stoppers is pleased to report that the community’s tips have resulted in the authorization of 22 rewards totaling $23,035. However, only nine of these have collected. If you have submitted a tip please check to see if you are entitled to a cash reward as unclaimed rewards expire six months after the award date.
