In a game that allows you to commit questionable acts, the last thing you want is to be chased by an armed militia. So here’s how to get rid of the Crime in Progress status in Palworld.
Palworld has quickly become the most important newcomer of 2024 with its wild gameplay, aptly dubbed the “Pokémon with guns.”

Kill the Witnesses
Alternatively, you can remove the Crime in Progress status by killing any witnesses who could report your misdeeds. It is best to kill all witnesses before the People’s Militia arrives on the scene.

This method is excellent and the fastest to end the Crime in Progress status. It allows you not to have to spend resources or lose items.
