I am a five letter word and I am a fruit. Take the first letter out and I am a crime, take out the first and second letter and I am a animal, take out the first and last letter and I am a type of music. What am I.
Common Wrong Answers
“Apple”
Apple is a five-letter fruit, but if you remove the first letter, it becomes 'pple', which is not a crime.
“Mango”
Mango is a five-letter fruit as well, but removing the first letter gives 'ango', which does not correspond to a crime.
“Banjo”
Banjo has five letters, but it is not a fruit; also, removing letters does not lead to a crime, animal, or music type.
