We sincerely appreciate everyone who submits anonymous tips through the Montezuma-Cortez dispatch center (yes! you can request to remain anonymous) and through the Crimewatch website and mobile app. Your care for this community truly makes a difference.

Please keep in mind that while tips submitted through Crimewatch are forwarded to dispatch and law enforcement, the platform is not monitored around the clock. If you witness a critical incident such as a wanted person, a fire, a drunk driver, or a fight in progress, it is important to call dispatch directly for a timely response.

Your eyes and ears help us protect Cortez. Law enforcement can't be everywhere at once. Officers, deputies and marshals rely on the information you share, whether anonymously or with contact details that allow follow-up.
