No one does anything original anymore.  Four resourceful gentleman—three dressed as ladies—successfully robbed Harry Winston of over $100 million in diamonds and other jewels last week.  NOW, some schmo decides to copy them.  Isn’t it always the way?  As soon as a guy has an excuse to put on a dress and rob someplace, he takes it.  This time, it was one man stealing an undisclosed amount of cash from the Commonwealth Bank in North Strathfield, Australia.

Evidently, the man was quite smartly dressed, according to an employee at a neighboring shop, who saw the man sitting on a bench at about 8 a.m.  He described the tranny as “…dressed in black, with a black dress, black stockings, a blonde wig about shoulder length” (AAP News Agency).  No word yet on whether or not the crook had ‘legs for days’. The witness asked that he not be identified, probably for fear of being caught eyeballing a chick who turned out to be packing more than heat.

The gun-toting gentleman, who evidently forgot to shave before stepping out in his bank-heisting finery, entered the bank, tied up three of the employees, and took as much cash as he could carry before fleeing on foot, which, any woman will tell you, ain’t easy in killer heels.  Because he was a lady, he did not injure anyone during the commission of the crime. 

Somewhere in Europe, or perhaps the Eastern Bloc, there are three cross-dressers and their male-dressing cohort disassembling the Harry Winston diamonds and jewels from last week, shaking their well-coiffed heads.    Rookie mistake, when committing larceny in ladies’ clothing, to have 5 o’clock shadow. 

Thus far, all transvestite burglars are still at large, and, most likely, dressed to the nines.
