How to Submit a Tip to UTPD Anonymously
Reporting through the LiveSafe at UT Austin App is the fastest way to report suspicious activity since the information goes directly to dispatchers. If it is an immediate emergency, always call 911 first.

- Select the Report Suspicious Activity or Report Incident button on the home screen of the LiveSafe at UT Austin app
- Under the tip detail box, slide the blue tab to select "Send Anonymously"
UTPD dispatch will receive your tip, but will not know your identity unless you decide to reveal it at a later time.
