'Crime doesn't fly here': New Crime Stoppers initiative posted at Kelowna airport
The campaign uses airport signs and Crime Stoppers tips to reach thousands of travelers and residents each day, officials said.
- Kelowna International Airport and Central Okanagan Crime Stoppers have formed a partnership to encourage anonymous reporting of suspicious activity, reaching thousands of residents and travellers daily with community safety messaging.
- The President of Central Okanagan Crime Stoppers, Bruce Baron, believes crime prevention starts with the general public, providing a safe, anonymous channel for residents to share information supporting investigations.
- Signs reading "Crime doesn't fly here" appear throughout Kelowna International Airport, reminding residents and visitors that public reporting plays an important role in community safety and providing Crime Stoppers contact details.
- YLW Senior Manager of Safety and Security Neil Drachenberg advises reporting criminal efforts to police, while suspicious activity affecting airport operations should go to YLW security; residents call 911 for emergencies or 250-762-3300 for non-emergencies.
- Both YLW and Crime Stoppers aim to sustain an increase in anonymous reporting through this initiative, fostering a safer environment for all travellers and community members.
