2. Acting on an anonymous phone call, the police raid a house to arrest a suspected murderer. They don't know what he looks like but they know his name is John and that he is inside the house. The police bust in on a carpenter, a lorry driver, a mechanic, and a fireman all playing poker. Without hesitation or communication of any kind, they immediately arrest the fireman. How do they know they've got their man?
Ans: The fireman has his name written on his suit.

Hi Sujatha, Chamu, and Rajshekar,
You are all correct. The fireman was caught because, as mentioned, the police apprehended JOHN (the name of a guy), and it is specifically stated as a fireman (instead of fireperson). Therefore, assuming he is the only male worker and the others are females.
Good attempt.

Dear Jay,
A logical third answer may be like this: I choose either the Apple box or the Orange box. For example, if I choose the Apple box, then if you pick up the Orange box, it will be labeled as "APPLE AND ORANGES Box." The Orange box will be labeled as "APPLE Box," and the Apple & Orange box will be labeled as "ORANGE Box" because we already know that all are labeled correctly.

Logical 2nd Answer of The Waiter:
The 3 paid $5 each initially, totaling $15. Then, they each received $1 back, meaning they only paid $12. In this scenario, we do not need to consider the initial $15 (as they already received $3 back) or the sum of $12 and the $2 kept by the waiter because doing so would not lead us to the correct answer.
Kindly correct me if I am wrong.
