This is wrong.

Every time I've asked police representatives at HOA or Townhall meetings which number to call when there are multiple jurisdictions patrolling the neighborhood, the answer is always the same:

Call 911 and they will route the information to the proper place.

The kids did the right thing.

Crime stoppers is a misleading name.
The crime has already been committed so why call crime stoppers?
Do they have a disclaimer stating rewards won’t be granted if 911 is called?
Oh, and lastly, what race are the boys?

The thing is, did they know the crime stoppers number off the top of their head???

Did they know 911 off the top of their head???

That says it all right there...

From article, bolding mine.

"“NYPD Crime Stoppers Program offers cash rewards for anonymous information provided to the 1-800-577-TIPS hotline that leads to the arrest and indictment of a violent felon. This program is supported by the New York Police Foundation and focuses on solving high priority violent crimes.”"

How can a reward be granted if "anonymous" calls?

IOW, they never intend to reward.

New York has lost the plot. Someone needs to print up some “I H8 NY” t-shirts. Money to be made!
