was in his truck a week ago doing his normal route between Italy & Spain when he pulled up in an autoroute layby near Montpellier. Whilst asleep he had someone spray gas into his cab and forced entry.
This is 'normal' practice in the summer months especially against tourists in caravans/campervans but I've never heard of it with a truck.
Waking up a little woozy, he found 600euros in cash missing & his credit cards gone. They'd used the credit card before he managed to stop it.
We both laughed & pointed out that Africa was less dangerous than the autoroutes of Europe!
Unfortunately he's not coming to the Cote d'Ivoire; nothing to do with this attack but he's got a lot of work on. A real shame!
