The criminals fled while the police reached the spot of crime.

Detailed Solution for Test Level 2: Modal, Auxiliary, Adjective and Adverb - Question 15

The original sentence bears the error of faulty use of tense and conjunction. When two past actions are in sequence, past perfect tense should be used to refer to the earlier action. Therefore, the correct usage is 'had fled'. The conjunction `while` needs to be replaced by the conjunction `before` to emphasize that the criminals had fled before the police arrived at the scene. This option rectifies both the errors of tense and of incorrect word usage.
