What is Crime Stoppers?

The Charlotte Crime Stoppers Program is dedicated to engaging community members in the fight against crime by addressing the two main barriers to involvement: fear and apathy. It encourages citizens to share important information that can aid local law enforcement in solving crimes and preventing future offenses.

Whether it's a burglary, robbery, drug activity, vandalism, violent crime, or any serious threat to safety, Crime Stoppers wants to hear from you. If you know about a crime that is about to happen, your information is just as valuable.

To make it easy and safe for the community to provide tips, Charlotte Crime Stoppers offers an anonymous, toll-free tip line, web-based tipping, and a mobile app. These tools allow citizens to pass on crucial information while remaining completely anonymous, helping to make the city safer for everyone.

The Charlotte Crime Stoppers toll-free tip line is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year!

 

CMPD's - Firearm by Felon Campaign

The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department has launched a program intended to target felons carrying firearms in our community.  The program urges members of the community to call a dedicated phone line and forward anonymous information with the identity and whereabouts of a felon in the possession of a firearm.

The anonymous caller will be eligible for a $500 reward if an arrest is made as a result of their anonymous tip. Additionally, anyone in the public who forwards information leading to the arrest of a person illegally carrying a firearm may be eligible for a cash reward.

We encourage the community to share vital information by calling the Crime Stoppers Tip Line at 704.334.1600 during this campaign.
