Alright, a priceless painting, an ancient Greek statue, a bowl of fruit, and a pen are stolen from a museum (total worth is estimated to be over 50 million dollars and 50 cents since I said so). The cameras didn't record anything and the alarm system malfunctioned, but a witness saw somebody fleeing the scene around 9:23 PM. There are no fingerprints and no other evidence except for black ink splotches in various parts of the museum and a construction helmet. The helmet is very old and doesn't have any fingerprints on it. The police find six suspects. Who robbed the museum?

And if this is horribly easy, well, sorry. It's very late and, well, if it was h ard to make, it should be hard to solve.
