When you report a crime to the Bureau/Putnam Crime Stoppers you are a "tipster," and under Illinois law your name remains confidential and you can be eligible for a tipster reward if the criteria is met.  If you report information directly to a law enforcement agency you become an informant and your name is not confidential and reward criteria does not apply.

** REPORTING  A  CRIME **

Crime Stoppers will forward information you have concerning unsolved crimes and wanted fugitives to the appropriate law enforcement agency.  Before calling, please be able to give as much detail information about the crime or fugitive including but not limited to the following:

• What type of crime was committed and/or is the fugitive wanted for.
• When the crime occurred or when the fugitive will be at a specific location.
• Where the crime occurred, where items from the crime can be found, or where the fugitive can         be located.
• Who is involved, their name, nickname,  age, date of birth, address, height, weight, tatoos, clothing,  vehicle description, and people they associate with.
  
• Any other details you think will help law enforcement solve the case or capture the fugitive.
