One- and Two-Officer Patrol Units: A Comparative Analysis.

The issue of the comparative advantages of one- and two-officer patrol units has been a subject of debate among police researchers for over 20 years.

It is vital that these objectives be pursued, regardless of whether a city utilizes one- or two-officer patrol units.
