88-Crime
is a telephone hotline you can use to report
information about any unsolved felony crime.
Callers are never asked to give their names,
and telephone calls are never recorded or
traced. Rewards are available if calls result
in the arrest and indictment of a felony
suspect.
You
can play an active role in keeping our streets
safe. Anytime you have information about
someone wanted by
the police or a crime that has been
committed, all you need to do is call 88-CRIME
(882-7463).
Since
this program began in 1980, tips to 88-CRIME
have been responsible for more than 3,265
felony arrests and more than $65 million
in recovered stolen property and seized
illegal narcotics. Thanks to the anonymous
tips from callers, 88-CRIME has helped take
a host of murderers, child molesters, armed
robbers, burglars and drug dealers off the
streets.
If
the information from callers results in
the arrest and indictment of a felony suspect,
the caller is eligible for a cash reward.
The program has given more than $777,000
for rewards since its inception. The reward
fund is financed by donations and contributions.
Calls
are answered 24 hours a day, seven days
a week.

88-CRIME announces several new partnerships to combat crime in the community: |
|
| |
88-Crime is now able to receive text messaging and tips online. You can now text a message to 274637, then enter tip259 plus your text message. Tips can also be submitted online at www.88crime.org. 88-Crime can also still be reached by calling 882-7463.
All tipsters will remain anonymous.
88-CRIME has partnered with Yellow Cab to put 88-CRIME signs inside their cabs and bumper stickers on the outside of the cabs. This program follows a similar effort that is currently working in Las Vegas. The Vegas Crime Stoppers joined with their local cab company to fight crime after a vicious shooting of a cab driver left him close to death and paralyzed.
Along with this partnership, 88-CRIME continues to work with many victim's families, neighborhood associations and other organizations like KOLD TV-13, KGUN TV-9, Arizona Daily Star, Tucson Shopper, Homicide Survivors, Human Society, Animal Cruelty Task Force, Southwest Gas, Tucson Electric Power, Southern Arizona Credit Unions, Crime Stoppers International, Crime Stoppers USA and other southern Arizona law enforcement agencies in the continuing battle in the fight against crime. Working together to make Tucson and southern Arizona a safer place to live and work, 88-CRIME is our Community Crime Stopper Program. Remember they don't want your name, just your information.
