DENVER, CO– Protecting the community is everyone’s job. Law enforcement look to the people in the community to protect and provide information about gun violence to help prevent violent crimes from occurring.
In an effort to increase the public’s ability to report tips, the ATF has partnered with reportit® to provide a simple to use mobile App that allows users to anonymously and confidentially submit tips about crimes that may be happening in your communities that involve firearms, explosives and arson and violent crime. reportit® is an independent entity that provides anonymous communication services to organizations around the world.
ATF values your privacy and is offering this service through reportit(link is external)®, a mobile app that allows you to remain anonymous. With reportit® concerned citizens can report suspicious or unusual activities in real time while having the assurance that your identity will remain anonymous and confidential. reportit® makes it easy to create and submit a tip, and attach a photo or video, with confidence that the information is forwarded to us real time. With the time and location of the incident, we can better respond and provide the necessary resources quickly and efficiently. You will have the option to provide your personal information, but this will not be required to submit your tip. You can visit the reportit (link is external)® website for more information on their service.
You can download the app to your Android or Apple device. You can also make a report by texting ATFDEN to 63975.
