Welcome
Welcome to Coastal Bend Crime Stoppers!
Coastal Bend Crime Stoppers is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit volunteer organization dedicated to help keep Bee, Goliad, and Live Oak Counties safe places to live, work, and play. Our mission is to work with area law enforcement agencies, the news media, and members of the public to publicize and gain intelligence on crimes occurring in our counties. Coastal Bend Crime Stoppers is not a law enforcement organization but a group of volunteers trying to engage the public to report tips on crimes anonymously through Crime Stoppers tipline.
Coastal Bend Crime Stoppers Board Meetings are held monthly on first Thursday of each month at 5:30pm, located at 210 E Corpus Christi Street in Beeville. Visitors are welcome to attend, and volunteers are needed to join our magnificent organization.

Check out "Crime of the Week" or "Cases" for information about current and cold cases!
* An extra $100 - $300 is added to the reward when a Crime of the Week case is solved!
A cash reward is still being offered for information about the theft or destruction of any historical marker or grave stone from a Bee County Cemetery. These markers are purchased with hard earned county, fund raiser, and private funds. They are the result of countless hours of research, and approved by the Texas Historical Commission. Their destruction is a crime against our whole community.
Texas law protects Texas cemeteries.
Keep those tips coming, and we will keep paying cash rewards!
***To be eligible for a Crime Stoppers' cash reward you have to call us first. We are only allowed to pay for Crime Stoppers' tips. If you choose to call your local law enforcement office after making a tip to Crime Stoppers, it is your choice. However, your identity may no longer be protected.
Up to $1000 offered for information that solves a crime
(Plus the extra $100 to $300 added to the Crime of the Week).

Crime Stoppers encourages members of the community to assist local law enforcement agencies in the fight against crime by overcoming the two key elements that inhibit community involvement: fear and apathy.
Crime Stoppers provides a telephone number and Web Tips to encourage citizens and students in the county to volunteer vital information helpful to law enforcement agencies in their efforts to solve local crimes.
