The City of Orlando Illegal Gun Bounty
Program
As
part of Mayor’s Dyer’s commitment to public safety, the City of Orlando
has launched a new partnership with Central Florida Crimeline to
generate leads for additional arrests and to get illegal guns off the
streets.
The Illegal Gun Bounty program will be administered through Central
Florida Crimeline, whose mission is to increase the safety of the
Central Florida community by assisting law enforcement agencies in
removing undesirable individuals from the community. Initial funding of
the Illegal Gun Bounty program is made available through the law
enforcement trust fund – which is forfeiture dollars and monies seized
from drug dealers and those involved in criminal activities.
Citizens are encouraged to See it, Stop it, and Say it by calling
Crimeline at 1-800-423-8477 (TIPS). Information that leads to an arrest,
a gun recovery and a weapons charge will result in a $1,000 cash reward.
