The Danbury Police Department has launched Tip411, an internet based tool that enables the public to text message an anonymous tip to police and lets officers respond back during the course of the investigation to create an anonymous two-way conversation.
Anyone with a cell phone may send an anonymous tip to the Danbury Police Department by texting DANBURYPD and their message/tip to 847411 (Tip411). Anonymous web tips can also be submitted.  Danbury Police say the technology removes all identifying information before officers receive it and there is no way to identify the sender. But in the case of an emergency, police encourage people to still dial 911.  Messages via the tip tool are not monitored 24-7.
