Question
The neighborhood block association has received many complaints about people knocking on doors and soliciting money for an unknown charity organization even though door-to-door solicitation is prohibited by local laws. Three residents have provided descriptions of individuals who have come to their door asking for money.
Solicitor #1 is a white male, 20-25 years old,
5'9", 145 pounds, with very short brown hair.
He was wearing a dark blue suit and carrying
a brown leather briefcase.
Solicitor #2 is a white male, 25-30 years old,
6'2", 200 pounds, with a shaved-head. He was
wearing a red T-shirt and jeans.
Solicitor #3 is a white male, approximately
23 years old, 5'10", slight build, with short
brown hair. He was wearing a blue suit.
Three days after the block association meet-
ing, a resident noticed a man knocking on
doors in the neighborhood and phoned the
police to report the illegal activity. This solic-
itor was described as follows:
Solicitor #4 is a white male, 22 years old, 140
pounds, about 5'10", with short brown hair.
He was carrying a briefcase and wearing a
dark suit.
Based on this description, which of the three
solicitations was also likely carried out by
Solicitor #4?
