Come say hi to our new Vernon County Crime Stoppers Law Enforcement Coordinator and get your kids fingerprint cards to take home as a souvenir. These cards are a great thing to keep with you in case something were to ever happen to your loved one.

Deputy Brown will be at the Chaseburg Area Cancer Walk today, Sept. 12th., from 11-1 doing child fingerprinting for families.

We just wanted to say thank you to all of the Vernon Co Crime Stoppers out there who have supported our mission since 1987! You may have seen some new signs and benches around the county this year and it wouldn't be possible without your support! If you'd like to purchase a bench or have a sign displayed, contact us at 608-637-8477! Benches sell for just $200!

Ok Crimestoppers, the Township of Hillsboro needs your help! Someone used rope and a tow strap to pull down and remove a new street sign over the weekend. The Township would really like their sign back so they don't have to spend over $300 to replace it. The sign had only been up for 10 days!

Someone knows who did this and needs to do the right thing... Those responsible should give the sign back and make it right with the Township, or information leading to an arrest can pay up to $1,000! Whichever comes first...

Call the Vernon County Crime Stoppers at 608-637-8477 or online at https://www.p3tips.com/TipForm.aspx?ID=101&C=&T to remain anonymous!
