After being down for about a month, the Halifax County Crimestoppers line is back up.

Captain O.L. Morgan of the Roanoke Rapids Police Department said a problem arose when the organization's finance officer became ill.

Crimestoppers was assigned the same number — 252-583-4444.

A determination on whether to restart the website will be made at a later date.

Crimestoppers also has a Facebook page which can be used to message tips.
