Rebirth of the Brain Teaser

[Frenzy]

A rich man's son was kidnapped. The ransom note told him to bring a valuable diamond to a phone booth in the middle of a public park. Plain clothes police officers surrounded the park, intending to follow the criminal or his messenger. The rich man arrived at the phone booth and followed instructions but the police were powerless to prevent the diamond from leaving the park and reaching the crafty villain.

What did he do?

My bird brain is hopeless at these things.

Get the kids on here.

he got the rich man to smash the windows of the phone booth and when the cleaners came the villian was one of them.

Nope. The thief ended up with the diamond but he didn't take it from the phone booth.

Hint

He didn't even go anywhere near the phone booth.

 

[Foz]

Did he mow a baseball diamond?

 

[Frenzy]

Did he mow a baseball diamond?

No Foz. It was a real diamond, this crook was no pigeon.

Hint in above line.

 

[blacktip-reefy]

I thought my hint in the original post was the best one.

 

[Foz]

Bird brain, no pigeon. I think I'll duck this one.

[Dragonschik]

Thats a hard one.....but is the rich man the thief or the son?????? Probabaly not but just a guess.

 

[Macca]

Geez, Dragonschik, you are a shocking troll.


There is either a homing pigeon in the phone booth or Doctor Who and the tardis are kidnapping people.

That's so close I'm gonna give it to you!

This is actually a true story from Taiwan.

When the rich man reached the phone booth he found a carrier pigeon in a cage. It had a message attached telling the man to put the diamond in a small bag which was around the carrier pigeons neck and to release the bird. When the man did this the police were powerless to follow the bird as it returned across the city to it's owner.

Well done McShark

Damn duplicate post

Ingenius way to get the diamond, was the kid released?


As for a new brain teaser. Here is an easy one.

At a phone booth next to a wharf, the phone is off the hook, there is broken glass and blood on the ground, what happened?

Dunno if the kid was released actually.

Is your's to do with fishing?

 

[Macca]

Yes it is.

 

[Frenzy]

Someone caught a fish. They had no knife to clean it so they broke the glass of the booth with the telephone and uses a shard to clean the fish???

 

[DJDL]

The guy that was on the phone was describing a fish he caught.

He said "it was this big", stretched his arms out to show how big, and smashed them through the glass.
