Lafayette County provides residents with contacts for reporting non-emergency crime information.
Who Deputies Are Looking For
The bench warrant stems from charges of possession of marijuana in a motor vehicle, a first-offense DUI, and driving without insurance, the sheriff's office post states.
It is part of the sheriff's office's regular practice of publicizing wanted individuals in hopes that community tips will help track them down.
How to Report Non-Emergency Crime Information
For non-emergency crime information, Lafayette County lists two contacts:
Residents can contact the Lafayette County Sheriff's Office at 662-234-6421 or Lafayette County Crime Stoppers at 662-234-8477, according to Lafayette County.
What a Reward Could Look Like
Exactly how much a tipster might receive isn't spelled out in the sheriff's office's post. Separately, the Oxford Crime Stoppers program states that callers never have to identify themselves or testify in court, and that tipsters are generally eligible for a cash reward of up to $2,000, with the amount depending on factors like the type of crime solved and the number of arrests made, per Oxford Crime Stoppers.
As of the sheriff's office's Wednesday post, it remains unclear whether Winters has been located or arrested. Residents with information are encouraged to use the tip lines above to help close out the case.
