Jackson Police seek public help identifying woman in surveillance video

Jackson Police Department is asking the public to help identify a woman captured on a surveillance video, the department said in a Facebook post. Officials asked anyone who recognizes the woman or knows her whereabouts to contact the Jackson Police Department at 601-960-1800 or Crime Stoppers at 601-355-TIPS.

The request was posted on the department’s official Facebook page and includes an image from the surveillance footage. The Jackson Police Department is the primary law enforcement agency for Jackson, Mississippi, the state capital and the largest city in Mississippi.

Police frequently turn to the public for assistance in identifying people shown in surveillance images when witnesses or tips could advance an investigation or enhance public safety. Crime Stoppers operates as an anonymous tipline that often works with local law enforcement to gather information from residents.

Anyone with information is asked to call the numbers supplied by police. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
