24-Hour, Anonymous
Drug Tip Hotline
(812) 385-3900

The 24-hour anonymous Drug Tip Hot Line is a mechanism for citizens to provide the Special Investigations Unit with information relating to illicit drug use and distribution

How does the Hot Line work?
When a citizen calls 385-3900, he or she will generally hear a taped message explaining that a detective is not presently available. However, speak as long as you like, explaining the activity in as much detail as you can. You do not have to provide your name, address, or telephone number. All information is kept strictly confidential.

What happens to the information I provide?
Information is "logged in" and cross-referenced, allowing detectives to determine if additional information related to the criminal activity about which you are calling has been reported in the past. Even "small" bits of information can at times provide detectives the "missing link" that allows them to take action. All information remains confidential, and within the Special Investigations Unit.

What if I want to speak with a detective directly?
You can leave your name and telephone number on the tape, and a detective will call you as soon as possible. Only certain Special Investigations detectives have access to the Anonymous Drug Tip Hot Line. Again, your name will remain strictly confidential at all times.

What if I want to report a drug transaction that is happening right now?
If you witness a drug crime or any other crime that requires immediate police response: DIAL 9-1-1. A patrol unit will be dispatched to the area. Many times, Special Investigations Unit detectives will hear the dispatch and take direct action themselves.

How can I use the Anonymous Drug Tip Hot Line most effectively?

1. Speak clearly and don't rush. Take your time leaving your message.

2. Be as specific as possible in providing the following information:

Location of the incident: street address of building or house, names of nearest intersecting streets, landmarks near or at the scene
Description of persons involved, such as height, sex, age, weight, clothing, hair color, eye color, skin color, and any distinguishing marks
Description of vehicles involved, such as make, model, color, and license plate

Remember, this is an anonymous tip line. All information is kept strictly confidential, within the Special Investigations Unit.
