Answer: Shocking

The tone of this excerpt is more likely to be shocking than any of the other options. The author is trying to convey the fear that Walsh and other children felt for the police. By describing the fear the children felt, the horrible actions of the police, and the words of the parents, the author tries to provide an image that surprises and shocks an audience that did not share the same experiences.
