Script (2:55)

Police officer:Mrs. Sims, I’d like to ask you a few questions so I can complete this report
about the robbery.
Shop owner: Yes, of course.
Police officer:OK. I understand there were two robbers – a man and a woman.
Shop owner: Yes, officer, that's right. The man wanted to buy the woman a ring – a
diamond ring. I showed them many rings, but the woman didn’t like any of
them.
Police officer:Then what happened?
Shop owner: Well, I decided to open this glass cupboard and take out another ring. While
I was opening the cupboard, the man suddenly took out a gun! He pointed
the gun at me … but then he shot at the ceiling. Maybe it was a mistake, or
maybe he was trying to frighten me. I’m not sure.
Police officer:What happened next?
Shop owner: The alarm started ringing because of the gunshot! It hit the alarm in the
ceiling. So, the man and the woman ran away quickly. Two policemen arrived
here about five minutes later.
Police officer:I see. Now, tell me – what did the suspects look like? Were they tall or short?
Young or old?
Shop owner: Um … they were both about 30 years old. The man was short, thin and dark.
His hair was black – very black – and his eyes were brown.
Police officer:What kind of clothes was he wearing?
Shop owner: He was wearing black trousers and a white shirt with a tie … um, a red tie.
Police officer:What about the woman? Can you describe her?
Shop owner: Yes, the woman was also short, quite short and thin. Her hair was brown and
her eyes were … I think they were green.
Police officer:Do you remember what she was wearing?
Shop owner: Um … yes, she was wearing a mini skirt and boots – brown boots. … Oh, and
she had a small tattoo of an apple on her leg – her right leg, I think it was.
Police officer:OK. Now we’re going to take some photos and search for the suspects’
fingerprints and other evidence. Where exactly were they looking at the
jewellery?
Shop owner: Over here – and here, too. Oh, no! One of the rings is missing! They stole
the most expensive ring in the shop!
