Friday puzzle -- detective work

Alex Y

Acting on an anonymous phone call, the police raid a house to arrest a suspected murderer. They don't know what he looks like but they know his name is John and that he is inside the house. The police bust in and find that the only people in the house are a carpenter, a truck driver, a mechanic and a fireman all playing poker. Without hesitation or communication of any kind, they immediately arrest the fireman. How do they know they've got their man?

Better be careful with that word fireMAN, Alex. The correct terminology is fire fighter. You don't want to get into a gender discrimination lawsuit, right?
