Explanation

Statement I indicates an increase in police patrolling in the evenings, which directly addresses the issue of petty crimes. As a result, this action likely leads to the decrease in crime mentioned in statement II. Therefore, statement I is the cause and statement II is its effect. Options B, C, D, and E do not accurately represent the relationship between the statements, as they either misinterpret the cause and effect or suggest unrelated scenarios.
