El Paso County sheriff’s investigators arrested two men on drug charges Tuesday in Central El Paso following an anonymous tip, officials said.
Jovan Ramos and Roberto Daniel Saavedra were arrested on drug possession charges during a traffic stop at Arizona Avenue and Noble Street, sheriff’s officials said.
During a search of a vehicle, investigators found a pound of hydroponic marijuana, 21 grams of cocaine and a gram of the prescription drug Adderall, officials said.
This year’s IACP was our most successful event ever! We met with dozens of customers, old and new, and had conversations with departments from across the country interested in learning about how they could use tip411 to better connect with their communities to help fight crime.
All those who stopped by our booth were entered for a chance to win a GoPro camera to help their department produce videos in their community, and this year’s winner was the City of Tigard, Oregon Police Department!
Congratulations to Commander Robert Rogers and the whole department on your new toy.

A recently debuted crime map allows Canton residents to see when and where robberies, burglaries and other crimes have occurred.
The map, a service provided at no additional cost as part of the Canton Police Department’s Tip411 subscription, is accessible at cantonohio.gov/police or communitycrimemap.com. Searches can be refined by address, date range and offense.
“One of our mantras has been ‘an informed community is a safer community.’” said Canton police Lt. John Gabbard. “We want people to know and be aware of what’s happening in your community.”
The option to create a map isn’t new, he said. It’s offered nationwide through Tip411, which allows people to send anonymous tips and receive police alerts, in partnership with data company LexisNexis.
As the department increasingly has used data to inform policing the past five years, record-keeping has reached the point where a map is feasible. Gabbard estimated police reports uploaded to the system are matched to the right location 97 percent of the time.
“As we improve how we can read our information and store it, then it makes a lot of things possible, and this is just one of those things,” Gabbard said.
We had a great time at the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) Conference in Philadelphia!
As always, it was great to meet old and new customers and talk to them about tip411 Basic, Bundle, and Pro, how they could benefit from our system, and the successes departments (large and small) are having with tip411 across the country.
This year we had more people stop by our booth than ever before to learn about what we offer, demo our products, and learn about new functionality like tip411 Select that will allow users of our apps to select the language that they want the app to use both for displaying information and submitting tips.
