#Person1#: Yes, I'd like to report a theft.
#Person2#: Okay. Can you tell me exactly what happened.
#Person1#: Well, I was walking home from work two days ago, enjoying the nature all around me ... the birds, the frogs, the flowing stream ... [Okay, Okay] when this woman knocked me right off my feet, grabbed my stuff, and ran off through the trees. [Hmm]. I was so surprised by the ordeal that I didn't go after her.
#Person2#: Yeah. Can you describe the woman for me?
#Person1#: Yeah. He was about a hundred and ninety centimeters tall ...
#Person2#: Wait. You said a woman robbed you.
#Person1#: Well, I'm not really sure. [Hmm]. You see, the person was wearing a white and black polka dot dress, a light red sweater over it, and she ... or he ... was wearing a pair of basketball shoes.
#Person2#: Humm. What else can you tell me?
#Person1#: Okay. Like I said, the person was about 190 centimeters tall, heavy build, with long wavy hair. She ... or he ... was probably in his or her late 30's. I didn't get a good look at the person's face, but well ... uh ....
#Person2#: What? Was there something else?
#Person1#: Well, the person ... had a beard.
#Person2#: Ah! What was, uh, taken ... exactly?
#Person1#: Well, just my left shoe. Bizarre, isn't it?
#Person2#: Ah. The 'bearded woman' has struck again!
#Person1#: The 'bearded woman'?
#Person2#: Yeah. It's this man who dresses up like a woman and, for some unknown reason, removes the left shoe from his victims. He's really quite harmless, though, and he usually returns the shoe to the crime scene a couple of days later.
#Person1#: Hey, he can keep my shoe, and I'll just take off my left shoe every time I walk through the park.
#Person1# reports a theft to a policeman. #Person1# describes the appearance of the thief and the policeman recognizes the bearded woman who often removes the victim's left shoe and returns after days.
