"Transvestites terrorise New Orleons"
"The transvestites first appeared in March when they raided Magazine Street like a marauding army of kleptomaniacal showgirls, said Davis, using clockwork precision and brute force to satisfy high-end boutique needs.
They first hit Vegas March 31 while Ogle was working.
тАЬThey come in groups of three or four. One tries to distract you while the others get the stuff and run out the door. ItтАЩs very simple,тАЭ Ogle said.
Next door at WinkyтАЩs, Bonga heard people screaming inside Vegas, then saw a blur of cheap wigs and masculine legs in designer shoes streak past her door.
тАЬAll of a sudden our UPS guy dove out of the store and tried to tackle them and thereтАЩs little Eric from next door on the sidewalk with a bunch of stuff he managed to grab from one of the guys,тАЭ Bonga said. тАЬThe other two guys took off down the street and jumped into a car driven by a real girl.тАЭ
Ogle gave police a description of the perpetrators тАФ African-American males ranging in height from 6 feet to 6-5. They all wore the same midriff shirts and wigs with twisted, dreadnaught hair.
тАЬTheyтАЩre all very skinny and very flamboyant,тАЭ Ogle said"
