An argument claims: 'Our town's crime rate has decreased significantly since we started mandatory nightly curfews for teenagers. Clearly, curfews are the most effective way to reduce crime.' This argument most clearly commits which logical fallacy?

✓ Correct Answer: Option C

The argument assumes that because the crime rate decrease *followed* the implementation of curfews, the curfews *caused* the decrease. This is the fallacy of 'Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc' (after this, therefore because of this).
