The Danville Police Department truly values its partnership with Danville Crime Stoppers. With support and coordination of the Danville Crime Stoppers board of directors, a specific, unsolved felony crime or wanted fugitive will be publicized either via the media or displayed on the Danville Police Department's social media accounts (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter).
From 1985 to 2003, there were 6,715 calls that resulted in 330 arrests in a range of crimes. With the community's participation, Danville Crime Stoppers can continue to be highly effective in not only stopping crime, but also deterring future crimes. The community benefits from Crime Stoppers as citizens are involved, crimes are solved, property is recovered, and drugs are confiscated.
If you ever need to contact the Crime Stoppers organization to report a crime, ask a question, or to provide any information, please call 434-793-0000.
