Robert, Scott and Tommy were suspects. The police found out only the thief told the truth. Stealing can be done only by thief!! Hence, the thief stole the clock.

Since Scott and Tommy contradict each other, one of them lied and the other told the truth. According to the police, two lied, so Robert must be one of them. Robert told a lie, he stole it.
To verify, if Tommy was the one who told the truth, then Tommy should be the thief rather than Robert. In this case, Tommy and Robert both told the truth, which conflicts with what the police said. Therefore, we know Scott told the truth only.
