Northern BC Crime Stoppers is an autonomous society run independently of the police by everyday citizens. All information received is secretly and is provided to the police in the hopes it will further investigations and lead to arrests, seizures, and recovered property.
The traditional technique of calling 1-800-222-8477(TIPS) and providing information to a skilled operator is still very popular but an increasingly popular option is submitting a tip via the website at www.northernbccrimestoppers.ca.
