Detailed Solution

In the given sentence 'Police' takes the action of 'arrest' against the subject 'two people' because two more people are being talked about. With a plural noun, the plural verb will follow. Thus, it should be 'were' and not 'was'. 'Was' is used with singular nouns. Hence all the other options are wrong and option 3 is the correct answer.
