About Crime Stoppers:

Crime Stoppers is a charitable not-for-profit organization that allows tipsters to anonymously report information about crimes or suspicious behavior through calling or submitting online. Information that leads to an arrest is eligible for a reward of up to $2000. Crime Stoppers is a strong, vibrant organization that partners with the Edmonton Police Service and the Alberta RCMP but relies entirely on the public’s financial support; this invaluable resource would not exist without the generous support of individuals and businesses in the region.
