Spanish police arrest three over raids on ‘at least 22’ luxury Ibiza homes

Two men and one woman accused of carrying out robberies at night and using gas to make residents groggy

The string of robberies, spanning years and all following a similar pattern, had left Spanish police perplexed.

Late at night as residents slept, the thieves - dressed in black and with their faces covered - would gain entry to some of Ibiza's most exclusive homes, often making off with thousands of euros in stolen goods. The victims frequently reported the same groggy feeling when they woke up, leading police to suspect that the perpetrators were using some sort of gas to induce drowsiness.
