IF THAT'S AN E-FIT, I'M VAN GOGH

Courtesy of the BBC:
Police have released a description and computer image of one of the armed robbers involved in the multi-million pound Securitas depot raid in Kent.

The man posed as a police officer to trick depot manager Colin Dixon into getting into a Volvo car on Tuesday.

He wore a police-style cap and a high visibility jacket.

He is described as white, 6ft to 6ft 1in tall, with a scruffy, "wiry and wispy" ginger beard which could have been false.
Here's the e-fit of the suspect with a "false beard":


Not trying to make light of a serious robbery, but the chaps from Guess Who? have facial hair that looks more realistic. It must have been a pretty shocking false beard.
