Up to $1,000 Reward on Home Burglary

Licking County Crime Stoppers is offering up to a $1,000 reward for anyone that has information leading to an arrest in a home burglary in Newark. The Newark Division of Police reports on Sept. 5, someone broke into a home in the 1500 block of W. Main St. while the residents were in bed, and stole a wallet, cash, and credit cards. Residents were awakened by noises, and one saw a man running through the backyard area. The suspect is believed to have fled in a car.

Anyone with information on this crime is urged to call the Licking County Crime Stoppers at 740-349-6888 or 1-888-488-9058. A special coding system protects the identity of the caller but allows for the reward to be issued at a later time.    

Crime Stoppers also takes calls from persons with information about any felony. Information leading to the arrest and indictment of a felony suspect could qualify the caller for a reward as determined by the Crime Stoppers’ Board. Crime Stoppers is a non-profit organization. Reward money comes from private individuals, businesses, and foundations that see Crime Stoppers as an integral tool in the community’s fight against crime. Tax-deductible donations can be sent to: Licking County Crime Stoppers, Inc., P.O. Box 304, Newark, OH 43058-0304.
