A man wearing a black dress, matching stockings and a long blonde wig robbed a bank at gunpoint in Sydney, but blew his disguise by failing to shave, police said.
“There was one lone offender, dressed as a woman, who was clearly a man,” Detective Inspector Hans Rupp of the Robbery and Serious Crimes Squad told reporters.
The unshaven cross-dresser tied up three employees of the Commonwealth Bank in Sydney’s inner west as they were opening for the day, before fleeing on foot with an undisclosed amount of cash.

“After the offender escaped, we don’t know which way he went,” Rupp said.
An employee of a neighboring business told the national AAP news agency he noticed a man sitting on a bench across the street as he arrived for work in the morning.
“It appeared to be a guy dressed as a lady,” he said. “He was dressed in black, with a black dress, black stockings, a blonde wig about shoulder length and he had facial hair,” the man said.
“He was just sitting there. I didn’t take notice of it, I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. About 10-15 minutes later, I heard cop cars park out the front.”
A Commonwealth Bank spokeswoman said no one was injured during the incident and staff involved had been offered counseling at the crime scene.
Two weeks ago in Paris, four armed robbers — two of them dressed as women — pulled off one of the world’s biggest jewelry heists, making off with 107 million dollars in diamonds and other valuables.

警方表示，一名穿著黑色洋裝、同色系長統襪，頭戴金色長假髮的男子，持槍搶劫雪梨一家銀行，結果卻因為未剃鬍子而露出破綻。
強盜暨重案組的偵查督導漢斯．拉普向記者表示：「這個獨行搶匪明顯是個喬裝成女子的男人。」
這個男扮女裝卻未刮鬍子的搶匪，在雪梨內西區的聯邦銀行犯案時，先是捆綁三名正準備開門營業的行員，然後帶著未公佈價值的現金徒步逃逸。
拉普說：「我們不知道搶匪往哪個方向逃跑。」
鄰近商家的店員告訴澳洲聯合新聞社，他當天早上上班時，有看到對街長椅上坐著一個男子。
他說：「那似乎是一個男扮女裝的男人。」男子說：「他穿著一身黑：一件黑色洋裝、黑色長統襪，戴著一頂金色的及肩假髮，而且臉上還有鬍鬚。」
「他就坐在那裡，但我也沒注意，我以為是我眼花看錯了。大約十到十五分鐘後，我就聽到警車停在店外了。」
聯邦銀行一位女發言人說，無人在這起搶案中受傷，被綁的行員也已在犯罪現場接受了心理輔導。
上週在巴黎，也有四位持械搶匪犯下全球最大珠寶搶案之一，他們搶走的鑽石和其他貴重珠寶價值一億七百萬美元，而其中兩名搶匪就是扮成女裝。

In 2023, an 80-year-old woman in Taipei suffocated her paralyzed son after over five decades of caring for him. Turning herself in immediately, she confessed that worsening health and anxiety about who would care for him after her death had driven her to act. The court, acknowledging her difficult situation, sentenced her to two-and-a-half years in prison while recommending a presidential pardon. This rare judicial recommendation drew a complicated social response. Supporters argue that the mother’s half-century of caregiving renders her deserving of compassion instead of incarceration, believing that allowing her to live her final years in dignity and

It sat on the fruit stand like a small sunset, red on one side and gold on the other. “I’ll take this one,” said Daniel. The fruit seller shook her head. “Not that one.” Daniel was surprised. “Why not? It looks beautiful.” “Yes,” she said, “but beautiful is not always ready.” She picked up another mango and held it near his nose. “First, smell here.” Daniel smelled the top of the mango. It was sweet and warm. “Good mangoes have a smell,” she said. “Next, feel the weight.”
