Illegal Gun Bounty Reward Program
$1,000 cash for tips leading to an arrest where a gun was using in a felony crime in Champaign County.
To help combat a marked increase in gun-related crime in our community, Champaign County Crime Stoppers launched a pilot initiative called the Illegal Gun Bounty Reward.
Anyone who contacts Crime Stoppers with a tip that leads to the arrest of a person who used a gun during the commission of a felony crime in Champaign County will receive our maximum $1,000 cash reward.
As always, to be award-eligible tips MUST be submitted directly to Crime Stoppers via our phone line, this website, or our free P3 Tips mobile app.
This initiative will continue to be offered so long as public donations are made to continue to fund this expanded reward. Want to help solve gun-related crimes? Make a donation today!
Anonymous crime reporting at your fingertips!

REMAIN ANONYMOUS. RECEIVE CA$H REWARDS.
Champaign County Crime Stoppers encourages the public to assist local law enforcement in the fight against crime by overcoming the two key elements that inhibit community involvement: fear and apathy.
Champaign County Crime Stoppers provides three main ways for tipsters to anonymously give helpful information to local law enforcement. If your tip leads to an arrest, you could receive up to a $1,000 cash reward.
To be eligible, and to protect the tipster's anonymity, tips MUST be submitted via one of the following ways:
NOTE-Tips received via email, social media, reported directly to 9-1-1, police, etc., will NOT be accepted, processed, or eligible for a reward from Crime Stoppers.
When you contact Crime Stoppers, you are not contacting law enforcement. We do not record phone calls or using any tracking schemes. Sophisticated technology is employed to ensure your identity will never be known to anyone.
With the public's help, local law enforcement can get the criminals off the streets and make our community a safer place to live.
You will remain completely ANONYMOUS and neither Crime Stoppers nor the police will ever know your identity. We don't want your name, just any information to help solve local crimes and put criminals behind bars.
Champaign County Crime Stoppers relies on a community volunteer board of directors and tax deductible contributions from the public in order to operate the program.
