Mississippi Coast Crime Stoppers posts photos on Facebook

Mississippi Coast Crime Stoppers posted photos on its Facebook page, the organization said. The post consists of images shared on the group’s social media account, where it regularly posts information for the public.

Mississippi Coast Crime Stoppers is a community-based program that works with local law enforcement to solicit anonymous tips from residents. Crime Stoppers programs across the country commonly use social media to share photos and information that may assist investigations or increase public awareness of safety concerns.

Social media postings from crime-stopping organizations can prompt tips, help identify individuals or vehicles and draw attention to safety issues in local neighborhoods. They also provide a quick way for officials and residents to reach a broad audience without revealing the identities of tipsters.

People with information are encouraged to check the Mississippi Coast Crime Stoppers Facebook page for details and to contact local law enforcement if appropriate. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
