restaurant when he heard someone scream - "No John, not the
gun!" He ran inside and and saw a doctor, a lawyer, a milkman, and a
dead body on the floor. He promptly walked over to the milkman and
arrested him. He didn't witness the shooting and there was no apparent
evidence to prove who shot the person and no one told him who the killer
was. How did the policeman instantly know it was the milkman?
