Answers to the riddles

Here are the answers to the riddles I posted:

Riddle1: The police didn’t tell the man where the crime scene was when they called to tell him his wife was murdered.

Riddle 2: The stars. 

Riddle 3:  This was a riddle that was created by Lewis Carroll in his book Alice and Wonderland. In the book, one of the characters-The Mad Hatter, asks Alice this riddle and when she says she doesn’t know, the Mad Hatter maddeningly says that he doesn’t know either. People who read the Alice and Wonderland got ticked off that there wasn't technically an answer to this riddle and so they started making their own responses such as “Because Edgar Allen Poe wrote on both" or "Because the both come with inky quills."
 
Riddle 4: Your shadow
Riddle 5: 'Startling' is the word. Begin by removing 'l', which makes it 'starting', then take away the 't', making it 'staring', and so on - string; sting; sing; sin; in; and, I.
