The Koper Principle is a policing strategy that involves patrolling high-crime areas for short periods of time. The goal is to deter crime and disorder without having to station officers in hot spots for long periods.
How it works
- Identify crime hot spots using crime maps or CAD
- Patrol hot spots for 10–15 minutes, at least every two hours
- Patrol randomly and intermittently to avoid predictability
- Consider traffic and pedestrian stops in violent crime areas
Benefits Reduces crime and disorder in hot spots, Improves community trust and legitimacy, and Makes better use of officer time.
