The officer’s patience was tested as he explained, “Well, uh… that’s because the picture I showed was his profile.”
A bit taken aback, he rapidly showed the picture to the second brother and questioned, “This is the suspect. How would you identify him?”
Grinning, the second brother retorted, “Ha! He’d be a cinch to catch since he’s got only one ear!”
The officer, now bordering on frustration, snapped, “What’s the matter with you two? The picture shows a side profile, so obviously only one eye and one ear are visible! Can you not provide a more sensible answer?”
His frustration reaching its peak, he presented the picture to the third brother and demanded in an irritated tone, “This is the suspect. How would you identify him?”
