Metro Vancouver Crime Stoppers has released its annual list of the ѻýleast-wanted Valentinesѻý for 2021.

For these 10 ѻýmost wanted fugitivesѻý in B.C., rewards of up to $100,000 are offered.

ѻýThey could be far away, or in your neighbourhood,ѻý the crime-fighting organization said in a news release Monday (Feb. 8), following a media event held outside Surrey Pretrial Services Centre.

People who know the whereabouts of these individuals can send anonymous tips to Crime Stoppers via phone (1-855-448-8477, 1-800-222- 8477) or online (). Thereѻýs also a downloadable ѻýP3ѻý app for and phones.

ѻýSome of these fugitives have been missing a year or even longer, and with four million pairs of eyes around the province, someone should eventually spot one of them,ѻý said Linda Annis, executive director of Metro Vancouver Crime Stoppers.

ѻýTips work. We received more than 5,000 anonymous tips in 2020 leading to 72 arrests and 135 charges laid. Twenty-one of those arrests came from tips specifically about gang or illegal gun activity.ѻý

Tips to Crime Stoppers that lead to the arrest and charge of any wanted criminal can lead to a reward of up to $5,000.

For three of this yearѻýs most wanted, Crime Stoppers has partnered with the national BOLO (Be On the Look Out) Program to make available extra large rewards of $50,000 to $100,000. The three are Conor DѻýMonte (wanted for murder), John Norman Mackenzie (wanted for being unlawfully at large) and Cong Dinh (wanted for money laundering).
