Answer 2

Answer:

The question of whether to use have or has depends on whether the subject “the police” is singular or plural.

Police is a collective noun. In American English collective nouns are treated as singular nouns. But in British English collective nouns may be treated as singular or plural. If the reference is to individual members of the group the Britishers treat the noun as plural. Example, the staff are unhappy - meaning the members of the staff are unhappy.

Here we would not be referring to individual policemen and hence the noun should be treated as singular.

Hence, “the police has caught the thief” is correct.
