Bob Smith has red hair. The suspect who has red hair is 5 feet tall. Therefore, Bob Smith is 5 feet tall. The murderer is 5 feet 9 inches tall, so Bob Smith is not the murderer.
The suspect who was carrying a purple umbrella is 5 feet 6 inches tall. The suspect who has blond hair was carrying a purple umbrella. The suspect who has blond hair is not the one who weighs 160 pounds.
