How You Can Be a Tipster
Maybe you overhear someone bragging about having committed a crime. Maybe you know someone who is driving a stolen car……or is hiding from the Police……or has killed, raped or beaten up someone……or is a robber, burglar or drug dealer.
Or maybe you just see something that doesn’t look right. A strange car. A person acting sneaky. A person with a gun or knife or other lethal weapon. People taking things out of a house, garage, business, car trunk or a railway car.
If you do, call (270) 687-8484. That’s our 24-hour hotline. If you aren’t sure that what you saw or heard is really a crime, call anyway. Let the Police decide if it’s worth investigating. It may be a piece of a clue to a big crime.
When you call, don’t give your name. We won’t ask for it. We don’t want it. No one will know your name, not even us. We will give you a secret number that is yours alone.
Crime Stoppers does not use caller I.D.
Tell us what you know…..or suspect. We will tell you to call back to find out how it turned out……and whether you will get a reward.
Call us and you may get a cash reward up to $1,000.
Also a better neighborhood. Less crime. Less fear. More peace of mind.
