How to unlock the Enforcer achievement in WATCH_DOGS - Definitive Guide

Crimes in progress appear as a blue inverted (upside down) triangle on your map. They only appear for a short time before they disappear, but don't worry if they do. They constantly show up throughout the game so don't worry if you miss a few, you will have hundreds of opportunities to get this. They are fairly straightforward but could be a challenge the first few times.
You have to make sure you are not spotted by the criminal and if you use your profiler you should spot the criminal and or victim. Just wait till the yellow bar turns red, than reveal yourself and either kill or knock out the criminal for it to count.

Hmm I'm not sure. It could be a glitch or your tracker is off somehow. Try to keep doing the crimes in progress and let us know if that works.

I never encountered that problem. Did you actually complete them? You have to kill or catch the person after he commits the crime, and if he detects you it doesn't count. If it still doesn't work you may have encountered a glitch. Check the watchdog forums and if nothing helps I'm afraid you may have to restart the game.

Yes i did all 20 with nearly all take downs i think i may have let 2 get away but i did at least 30 extra ones, they should have counted.

Only thing I can recommend is trying to call Microsoft or try the Microsoft, units oft, or watchdogs forums. Also try to power off your Xbox one completely (remove power cord) and see if that helps. Also you just be connected to Xbox live and the Internet for it to pop

That sucks dude it must be a glitch or bad coding. Hopefully they patch it. I don't know what else to suggest besides either waiting or starting a new game

My achievement tracker is at 100% for this achievement and it has not popped yet. For my 20th criminal, I couldnt catch him in time and he ended up calling for back up, something that has never happened during the previous 19. Could this be something to do with it?

@dobo I'm not sure. Keep trying to do a few more and if nothing happens you may have to start a new game. If you look in the comments DaWrestlinJoker had the same problem and starting a new game worked for him.

Honestly I don't understand what the problem could be. I had no problem with it and neither did 6 of my friends who played. Than again we all played within the first week it came out but that shouldn't have made a difference. Wonder if it's bad coding or just a few unlucky people

Glitched for me as well. They should flag ALL the achievements as buggy. Got my first 5, now nothing will unlock. Tracking progress now shows 0% on all cheevos. WTF.

Still glitched on the One for me. Achievements app says i'm at 85% but i have taken down over 40 criminals. Ingame it says I have unlocked the achievement. I guess a new game will have to fix this.. sloppy programming Ubi!

Went up 5% with every take down, until 90%. For 19 and 20 it did not go up and is stuck at 90% even though in game it says you have earned the achievement.

In that case it must be the console. I heard rumors that of you are not connected to the Internet the achievement will pop once you reconnect. If you were connected to the Internet than I don't know, however it could be a similar issue where the console thinks you are offline or didn't get get it until a little later. I assume this because on some games on the One the achievement popped a few seconds after I got it. My question to the people encountering this glitch where achievements dont pop: did you encounter this in other games or only in watchdogs. As if anyone played this for the 360 can you let us know if you encountered this?
