Crimestoppers "Most Wanted" goes live
New national website set up to help police appeal to public for information.
Crimestoppers has launched a “Most Wanted” website to allow police to post appeals to the public about suspects across the country.
Most Wanted has been developed because historically there has been no single place for the police to continuously share information with the public about wanted criminals. Crimestoppers has developed an online facility for the public to view people who the police are currently looking for across the country. Police forces are able to post appeals and update information themselves. Any force can sign up to Most Wanted at no cost they only have to ensure they have the correct protocols in place before they post appeals.
Most Wanted is a secure and trusted source where people can view photos, watch CCTV footage and read descriptions of suspects. People will be able to view pictures of the `Most Wanted` in their local community and take action if they recognise any of the individuals listed. Visitors can search by area or carry out a detailed search with information such as hair and eye colour.
