Answer: It was written the same day Claudette was taken off the bus.

Step-by-step explanation:

The excerpt from the police report in "It's My Constitutional Right!" is an example of a primary source because it was written the same day Claudette was taken off the bus.

The primary source is also referred to as an original source and it is a recording, diary or document, which was created when a particular incident happened. The excerpt from the police report was taken when the issue occured in the bus, so it was a first hand information and original and is therefore a primary source.
