WeTip’s Community Safety Program

Wednesday, July 15th, 2009

WeTip’s Anonymous Crime Hotline is a way for citizens to get involved in establishing a safer community.  Residents are often afraid to report crime information because they fear reprisal from the person they are reporting.  WeTip gives community members an opportunity to give information without fear.

When you call the WeTip hotline, the first words you will hear from the operator will be,   “This is the WeTip crimeline, please do not give your name.”  The operator will then ask a series of questions, designed by law enforcement, to obtain the maximum amount of information about the reported crime.

WeTip information is immediately conveyed to the appropriate police, fire, and sheriff’s agencies.

After the information is taken, if the informant requests a reward, a code name and number are assigned to the informant.  The caller always remains absolutely anonymous (not just confidential).

Cash rewards of up to $1000 are given upon verified reports from law enforcement that WeTip information was received prior to arrest and that the information was helpful in the arrest and conviction.

The reward drop is made at a designated postal location, using the assigned code names and case numbers.  No personal contact is ever made with the informant.

You can call this number 24 hours a day and Report your concerns to us.

No one will ask your name, you will remain anonymous.

Lori’s First Post

If Canyon Lake had to be described in one word, that word would be unique. One of only five gated cities in California, Canyon Lake began as a master-planned community developed by Corona Land Company in 1968. The Lake originally was formed in 1927 after Railroad Canyon Dam was built. It covers 383 acres and has 14.9 miles of shoreline. The “City of Canyon Lake” was incorporated on December 1, 1990. The City has a population of 11,051 and geographically spans 4.6 square miles.
