The correct answer is A. Was taken

The correct option to fill in the blank space is Was taken.

So, the complete sentence would be: "A policeman stopped me and I was taken to the police station."

This construction is in the passive voice, indicating that someone (in this case, the speaker) was taken by someone else (the policeman) to the police station. Option A correctly conveys this action in the past tense.
