Mississippi Coast Crime Stoppers posted to its Facebook page, the organization said on social media in a brief message. The post itself contained limited information and did not provide further details about the reason for the notice.
Mississippi Coast Crime Stoppers is a nonprofit organization that works with local law enforcement to encourage community members to report information about crimes. Organizations in the Crime Stoppers network typically accept anonymous tips and sometimes offer rewards for information that leads to arrests and convictions.
Posts from Crime Stoppers can play a role in public safety by alerting residents to investigations, seeking information about suspects or missing persons, and reminding people how to submit tips. Social media has become an important channel for rapid communication between local safety organizations and the communities they serve.
Because the Facebook post provided only minimal information, additional details were not available at the time of publication. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
Jon Ross Myers founded Mississippi News Group in 2013. Before founding the organization, he worked at The Daily Mississippian, The Marion Salute and The Southern Sentinel. A Mississippi journalist and writer based in Ripley, he received second place in poetry in the 2025 William Faulkner Literary Competition for "The Garden."
