Dekalb County Police Department (860 sworn officers) enhances their community safety by teaming up with tip411 so citizens can submit anonymous tips directly to officers.
“Our mission is to enhance the quality of life in DeKalb County by working with the community to preserve the peace and provide for a safe environment,” said DeKalb County Police Chief Mirtha V. Ramos. “We believe our new app will help us do just that by making it easier for our residents to engage with us to protect our community.”
The tip411 anonymous text-a-tip system is 100 percent anonymous, as the technology removes all identifying information before police see the tips and there is no way to identify the sender, officials said.
tip411 has been proven to reduce crime, close cases, improve community engagement, and overall makes communities safer.
The public can submit anonymous tips to Dekalb County Police by texting “DKPD” and the tip information to 847411. The public can also use the DKPDs Tip mobile app, powered by tip411, to view community alerts and submit anonymous tips. The DKPD Tip app can be downloaded for free at the iTunes and Google Play App Store.
