Answer:

Police is a plurale tantum, a word with no singular form.

The police are here.  ← This is okay.

*A police is here.     ← This is not.

Most of the time, if you'd like to talk about a single officer of the law, you say a police officer, or just an officer:

A police officer is here.  ←  This is okay.

Several officers arrived.  ←  This is also okay.

The latter sentence is fine if it's clear from context that you mean a police officer.

But in any case, you can't say *a police.

The police" is not always plural. If it names the institution of the police, as a governmental body or as a concept in political theory, then it is singular. But when you say "The police are coming!" you almost always mean "various policemen." Hence the plural verb.
