Marty Jones

Explanation:

Given that no two suspects have the same weight, colour shoes, colour umbrella, colour car, or hair colour.

There are six people in the elevator including Fred Albert. Fred Albert was the one whose wallet was stolen and so our suspects are the other five people in the elevator.

We know that the thief owns a black car and he was wearing blue shoes

( since the suspect who owns a black car was wearing blue shoes). The thief also weighs 190 pounds( since the suspect who weighs 190 pounds was wearing blue shoes)

Brian Martin has a green car so he is cancelled out

John Fox has red hair and is cancelled out(since the suspect who weighs 190 pounds is not the one who has red hair)

Bill Edison was wearing brown shoes so he is cancelled out(since thief was wearing blue shoes)

Larry Smith weighs 210 pounds and he is cancelled out( since thief weighs 190 pounds)

We are left with one suspect remaining Marty Jones, hence he is the thief
