Crime Stoppers Tips Aid in Numerous Arrests

During the month of May and first part of June, tips received through shreveport-caddo crime stoppers have assisted investigators with closing several cases and arresting 16 suspects in the process. Many of the crimes solved were the result of indentifying suspects captured on video cameras at the businesses where they either burglarized or robbed, and others were fugitives trying to avoid arrest. To date, the local Crime Stoppers program has assisted with solving 33 cases, arresting 30 suspects and capturing 15 fugitives...as well as paying out over $10,000 in rewards and recovering about $9,000 worth of property.
