Might be funny if it weren't so scary to contemplate.

Pansy europeans in the USA the robber would act like a real man and kicked in the door then with gun in hand rob the people man style maybe even shoot them or worse.

Call me the same. This sounds like a bad B Rated movie plot. Come on, really. "Gassing" them through the A/C/ ducts? How come no one else got exposed? It's not as if this type of duct work is hermetically sealed from room to room. Does such a "gas" even exist?

Nitrous Oxide must be continually inhaled in high concentration to have any effect. Once the patient stops breathing it, they become conscious very quickly. You couldn't pump enough into a room to induce unconsciousness in 2 people for that length of time. I'm calling complete B.S. Typical European tabloid nonsense. Probably next to the story about the Chocaholic mom who gave birth to a sugar coated baby.

Insurance scam perhaps?

Won't be the first, or last time.

Stranger things have happened. I had a retired co worker I know worth well into 7 figures, get arrested for shoplifting a $2 wrench out of Wal-Mart. Talk about embarrassed.

Paper is a rag, but heh, makes for mindless reading on a Saturday morn.

The story seems to be falling apart.

I like the latest speculation that if one is drunk and unable to wake up during a break and enter, one doesn't really need to blame a "sleeping gas."
