Fred Fox was carrying a yellow umbrella. The murderer was carrying a purple umbrella, so Fred Fox is not the murderer.
The suspect who was carrying a white umbrella was wearing white shoes. The suspect who was wearing white shoes has blond hair. The suspect who has blond hair owns a black car. Therefore, one suspect was wearing white shoes, was carrying a white umbrella, has blond hair, and owns a black car. But Bob Brown was wearing brown shoes, David Graig owns a white car, Jack Jones has grey hair, and Fred Fox was carrying a yellow umbrella. Therefore, the only suspect who could be this suspect is John Stevenson. Since John Stevenson was carrying a white umbrella, he is not the murderer.
