    The correct answer is b: a 25-year-old, Black, male, rookie officer working night shift, and making an arrest.

    Explanation:

    All factors present in the situation set bigger possibilities that the officer gets involved in a force incident. The officer is young (25-year-old) and inexperienced (rookie), which means he's likely to make mistakes while doing some procedures. Besides this, other cases (options A, C, and D) are about officers who are well-experienced, adults, and not doing such a risky job. The officer described in option b is performing an arrest, which is something that may upset people, even when they are guilty. Additionally, he works at night (the perfect time for criminals, robbery, and more drunk people on the streets). Finally, he's black, which could lead situations to racism demonstrations and aggressive behavior from some people.
