A Midnight Crime Halloween was perfect with a clear and dark sky. Many people came to the Smiths’ Halloween party. Everyone had a great time, and some people stayed until dawn. After everyone left, the Smiths discovered that some expensive jewelry was missing. They called the police. The police asked everyone who had been at the party to answer a few questions.

A police officer listened carefully to each person’s story. Mr. Jones said, “I left the Smiths’ party around midnight, and I walked to my car. It was cold, but the sky was clear with no clouds. It was totally dark outside. When I got in my car to leave, I saw someone walking out of the house holding a decorated wooden box. I turned on the car lights, and the person immediately turned around and walked away from me. He or she walked directly toward the wall next to the house. I could see the shadow on the wall getting larger and larger until the person disappeared around the corner. At that time, I did not suspect anything, so I just drove away.” The police officer thought for a minute and said, “You are under arrest on suspicion of stealing the Smiths’ jewelry. Your statement includes too many impossible details. I suspect you know something about the disappearance of the jewelry collection.” What are the impossible details in Mr. Jones’s statement to the police? Explain why these details are impossible.
