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:

Territorially: Police are seeking information on persons who are burglarizing homes in the territory. In particular, police are urging anyone who may have information on any persons buying stolen goods for resale or for shipping off island.
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 we paid our tenth reward this past week. The amount of the cash reward was $1,750.

To everybody who is as shattered and devastated by the recent violence in our beautiful Virgin Islands!
Yesterday evening a small group of friends got together and being concerned about the recent violence we spontaneously decided to create a human chain from Christinasted to Frederiksted. Our motto:
“ALL OF WE ARE MORE DEN DEM”
The plan is on Sunday, Aug 9th to start at 2pm in Christiansted at the Government house and in Frederiksted at the Fort. We imagine the chain going from Christiansted along Company Street going towards Pueblo at Golden Rock, from there passing Basin Triangle until La Reine and then connecting along Centerline Road. From Frederiksted going Strand Street then along the street going to the Post office, up the road towards Centerline road. We imagine the human chain to connect at Centerline road at 4pm.
Let’s do it and show our strength that: “ALL OF WE ARE MORE DEN DEM”.
Please join from wherever is the closest point of your home and hold hands.
Let’s create that human chain of peace and love.
