French robbers used soporific gas

French police are warning tourists that criminals are increasingly using the narcotic gas to neutralize their potential victims, and then rob them.

The last time the attackers robbed an elderly British couple traveling on a tourist residential vans in southern France. Raiders let in a safe, yet powerful gas in a trailer while the elderly couple were asleep. When the British came to their senses, they found that they had stolen 1,200 pounds, passports, phones and bank cards.

According to the spouses of Wiltshire when they woke up, felt woozy, and then, looking around, realized they had been robbed, reports AFP.
