Crime Scene Tape

The crime-scene-tape icon represents a symbol used to mark and restrict access to areas that are being investigated by law enforcement or forensic teams. It signifies a crime scene and is often associated with police investigations and forensic analysis. The crime-scene-tape is typically used to cordon off areas to preserve evidence and prevent contamination.

In real-world applications, the crime-scene-tape icon may appear in software or platforms related to law enforcement, forensic analysis, or emergency response, such as crime mapping tools, police dispatch systems, or forensic software. For example, it may be used in police department interfaces to indicate restricted areas or in emergency response systems to alert responders to potential crime scenes.

From a UX perspective, the crime-scene-tape icon communicates a sense of caution, warning, or restricted access. It helps users understand that an area is off-limits or requires special attention, which can be crucial in high-stress or high-stakes environments like law enforcement or emergency response.

Crime Scene Tape is one of 4,123 icons in Game Icons, made by GameIcons and released under CC BY 3.0. It is drawn on a 512 × 512 grid.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds CrimeSceneTapeIcon to components/icons/game-icons-crime-scene-tape.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed CrimeSceneTapeIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Crime Scene Tape icon, or any of 4,123 Game Icons icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 512 × 512 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Crime Scene Tape", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. CrimeSceneTapeIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <CrimeSceneTapeIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.

Yes, with credit: CC BY 3.0 asks you to credit the author (GameIcons) where you use the icons. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

Yes. CC BY 3.0 asks you to credit the author where you use the icons, for example "Icons by GameIcons, CC BY 3.0" on an about or credits page.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
