The problem that arose in the Jatinangor area attracted researchers to find out how the police action to deal with curanmor with the Sabhara Unit conducted a patrol to suppress the amount of curanmor that occurred. Organizational management of the Patrol Unit is needed to achieve the goal of reducing the amount of compensation. The implementation of the main tasks owned by the Patrol Unit listed in Article 23 of the National Police Office No. 1 of 2017 will be analyzed using management theory from George R. Terry. This study uses a qualitative approach and field research methods. This research is a qualitative research using interview, observation, and document inspection methods. Data analysis was performed by data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of this study indicate that prevention efforts by four-wheeled Sabhara patrols have not had a significant impact on reducing the number of criminal acts of curanmor in the Jatinangor police station. This study also found that there are factors that influence the sabhara four-wheeled patrol, namely, supporting factors such as adequate facilities and infrastructure, adequate patrol budget, and inhibiting factors such as, the role of the community that is still apathetic, patrol targets where patrol cars cannot entering a narrow lane / alley, and inadequate personnel.
