clyde Member 71 Member For: 22y 3d Location: Sydney Posted 22/08/03 04:29 AM Share Posted 22/08/03 04:29 AM I have been presented with the following brain teaser at work. I have no idea as what the answer is and I thought since the people on this forum were smart enough to purchase such a great car they may also be smart enough to know the answer."Acting on an anonymous phone call, the police raid a house to arrest a MURDERER. They don't know what he looks like, but they know his name is John. Inside they find a carpenter, a lorry driver, a car mechanic and a fireman playing cards. Without even asking his name, they immediately arrest the fireman. How do they know that they've got their man."
