I think there is a shift at “...assured him”. From reading the beginning, you would think the person is under arrest, “stay where you are”. But, the sentence goes on to say that the police officer ‘assured’ him that. He could’ve been in danger, so the officer was telling him that help was on the way, just stay put.
I think the answer is B. Because there is a period before the sentence: "The cookies were not eaten by the children" choice B contains the misplaced modifier. Unless that was a typo.
Hope this helps!:)
