The next phase in fighting violent crime is here. 🚨

In partnership with the FBI, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department is taking our message to the streets — literally. Starting today, new billboards across the valley will remind everyone: HELP CRUSH VIOLENT CRIME.

We need everyone to speak up so we can investigate and hold violent perpetrators accountable!

Sheriff Kevin McMahill says Las Vegas is experiencing historic reductions:

📉 Officer-Involved Shootings: Down 66% in 2025 (4 compared to 12 YTD in 2024)
📉 Homicides: Down 30% — solvability among the highest in major U.S. cities (91% as of Oct. 19, 2025)
📉 Violent Gun Crime Unit solved 100% of crimes (43) since inception in 2024 (Oct. 29 - Dec. 31, 2024)

💥 Our Violent Gun Crime Unit (VGCU), continues to deliver results:
✅ 194 cases in 2025, 190 solved — a 98% solve rate
✅ 273 firearms recovered and removed in 2024

This is what happens when community partnerships and relentless police work come together.
