City’s Report for Reward Program

What you see could be worth $500

That is the premise of Report for Reward, an incentive program created by the City in November 2013 to reward individuals who report information that leads to the arrest of suspects accused of attempting or committing property crimes within city limits. Under this program, all incidents of suspicious activity or crimes in progress reported to the Walnut Sheriff's Station are eligible for a monetary reward of up to $500 should the information provided prove useful in deterring or solving a crime. Requests for anonymity are honored.

Spotting and Reporting Suspicious Activity Activities or behavior that might indicate that a crime has been, or is being committed, include:

 Someone peering into car windows or pulling on door handles.

 Someone detaching parts or accessories from a vehicle.

 Someone hiding behind a car, tree or other object.

 A stranger entering side or backyards of homes.

 A stranger loading items into a vehicle in a rushed manner.

 Unrecognized vehicles driving up and down a street more than once.

If you observe a crime in progress or a lifethreatening situation, immediately call 9-1-1. However, if the crime has already taken place or if you are observing something suspicious activity, it is best to call the Walnut/Diamond Bar Sheriff’s Station’s nonemergency line at (909) 595-2264.

Be prepared to provide the Sheriff’s station dispatcher a brief description of your observations including address or approximate location, physical characteristics of the potential suspect(s), mode and direction of travel (car, bicycle or on foot), and details about the vehicle such as color, year, make, model and license plate number.
