The police have confiscated Trotter's broomstick.

This answer is correct. The report stated that the broomstick was impounded, meaning that it was taken from Trotter and is being kept by the police. The verb "to confiscate" shares a similar meaning with the verb "to impound". In most cases, "to impound" is used in legal contexts when something has been seized and retained (by an authority).

Trotter has confessed to the crime.

This is incorrect. The police received an "anonymous tip" from someone reporting the crime. This means that someone called the police to report the crime. There is no mention of Trotter confessing to the crime in this report.

The police think that Trotter and the pigeon probably hit each other whilst flying.

This answer is correct. Apparently there was a "wizard-pigeon collision". When two things "collide" with each other they "bump" or "crash" into one another. Moira also says that the collision occurred in "mid-air" which means in "the middle of the air".

The type of accident described by Moira is extremely rare.

This is incorrect. Moira says in her report that "1 pigeon is killed every 2 hours" due to collisions with wizards, which suggests that accidents like this happen frequently.

Trotter was flying on his own broomstick.

This is incorrect. Moira describes how police discovered that the broomstick was "stolen". This means that the broomstick was taken from the owner without their knowledge or permission.
