• The given question is a sort of verbal ability question where there will be a sentence with missing words, and we are instructed to complete the sentence with the most suitable word or phrase from the given options.
• Prepositions are words that show the relationship of one word in a sentence to another word.
• In a sentence, a preposition can tell: 1. the position of something, 2. the direction in which something is going, 3. the time when something happens or 4. the relationship between a noun or a pronoun and another word in the sentence.
• In the above sentence, "about" is used to describe or tell about another noun (police) and the "in" preposition is used to tell the position of the noun (thief).
