The Central Alabama Crimestoppers apprehend 3,000 fugitives

Montgomery, Alabama – Central Alabama CrimeStoppers revealed on Thursday that they have officially assisted in the capture and identification of 3,000 wanted fugitives since the organization’s establishment.

CrimeStoppers of Central Alabama was founded in 1997. It began with a modest aim to apprehend fugitives in the Montgomery area and assist in the identification of suspects engaged in unresolved felony investigations and has since expanded to 30 counties and partnerships with 85 law enforcement agencies across Alabama.

CrimeStoppers said that they depend on their many partners, like the media and law enforcement, to help spread the word about wanted fugitives and unsolved crimes. Most significantly, the public’s swift response to press releases leads in a lot of tips that aid law enforcement in the capture of fugitives and the resolution of cases. CrimeStoppers has gotten over 700 anonymous tips, cleared 185 cases, paid a cash reward of $29,000.00 on 43 solved cases, assisted with 106 fugitive apprehensions and 365 criminal charges, recovered 98 firearms, assisted with solving 10 homicide investigations, and helped locate 25 missing people this year alone.
