Crimestoppers turns 25 in NWO

The Crimestoppers program in Northwestern Ontario and Northern Minnesota is celebrating
a major milestone this year.

It turns 25 year old.

Bill Harrington is the chairman of the Crimestoppers board and says they've seen a lot of growth
in the last quarter-century.

Last year Crimestoppers received 564 tips from residents in northwestern Ontario and
Northern Minnesota and approved over 14 thousand dollars in rewards for those tips.
