OPINION

NOONAN, Circuit Judge.

Rosa Maria Nevarez-Martinez (Nevarez) petitions for review of the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals (the Board) ordering her removal from the United States as an alien convicted of a "theft offense" under 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(43)(G) and therefore as an aggravated felon. We hold that the record does not support the Board's conclusion. We grant Nevarez's petition.
