The armed robbers stabbed the driver …. the back

  • A In

The correct answer is A. In

prepositions are all connectors. 

In this context "In" is defined as inside an area, moving from a point outside to a point inside.

"On" is used to indicate position, usually indicating that something is on top of something else.

A stab in the back would mean, a stab from the outer area to the inner area. Option A is correct
