GUARDIAN/ J. Hooper
Police in Sardinia's wealthy resort Porto Cervo believe thieves used sleeping gas on billionaire victims...before stealing some €315,000 in cash and jewels.
Robberies with the same modus operandi have been reported this summer in France and Spain.
"Gassing gangs" in France recently targeted caravans and camper vans...spraying sleeping gas through air vents before breaking in.
