Correct Answer: so very fastly into the woods
Solution : The error lies in the fourth option.
The word fastly is not commonly used in English. The correct adverbial form of fast is simply fast. So, the correct version of the sentence omits fastly and uses fast to indicate the rapidity of the gunman's movement into the woods.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "Police could not catch the gunman as he ran off so very fast into the woods."
