Murder at school
•On the first day of school, someone murdered a history teacher. There were four people at the school that the police suspected had done it: the landscaper, a maths teacher, a basketball coach, and the headteacher.
These were their alibis:
•The landscaper said he was outside mowing the lawn.
•The maths teacher said he was giving a mid-year test.
•The basketball coach said he was running practice drills with his players.
•The headteacher said she was in her office.
After giving their alibies, the police arrested the killer immediately. Who killed the history teacher and how did the police know?
Answer:
The maths teacher killed the history teacher.
He claimed that he was giving a mid-year test, but it was the first day of school.
