SOLUTION

SOLUTION:

The driver of the Chevrolet is not Mr. Miller(clue 1)or Mr. Allen(clue 4), so he is Mr Bailey. He does not live in the blue house(clue 1) or the green house(clue 4), so he lives in the red house.

Since the driver of the Dodge (the bank robber in clue 3) does not live in the blue house(clue 3) he lives in the green house, and by illimination, the driver of the Ford lives in the blue house.

Since the driver of the Ford lives in the blue house, he is not Mr. Miller(clue 1), so he is Mr. Allen, and the driver of the Dodge is Mr. Miller. Since Mr. Miller owns the Dodge, he is the bank robber.

Sincerely,
