(Buffalo, New York) For dissemination:

"Text-A-Tip" starts at 8 a.m. Wednesday, providing citizens yet another way to provide the Buffalo Police Department information on criminal activity.

Hoping to dial into a generation more comfortable with texting than making anonymous calls to the police telephone TIP-CALL line, Mayor Byron W. Brown and interim Police Commissioner Daniel Derenda said Monday that texting tips and sending electronic photos or videos will help make the city safer and build upon a partnership with citizens.

The number to text a tip is 847-2255, the same one for anonymous calls by voice.

Heh.
