Reading his report sounds like he must of been drugged or knocked out, can't remember anything from wine bar to park. Scary stuff,

I saw that last night and it did seem strange. Although these guys do earn mega bucks, they won't carry it on their person, but some of the watches they wear will be worth thousands of dollars. But why take him six miles away, beat him up and abandon him?
Terrible thing to happen to anyone.
It's scary that he reports he remembers nothing from being in the bar then waking up 6 miles away. A homeless woman said she saw a car pull up and him being thrown out of it.

5-0 usually clear more serious things up in less than an hour. Someone call Steve McGarrett. I predict a "book him Dano" by lunchtime.

It must be to get them to somewhere where there is no help on hand. A few years ago on a footy trip in Moscow one lad was found in a park about 20 miles away from where he was drinking. He was left in just a t shirt, jeans and socks. The last thing he remembered was drinking in the Safari Bar. All his money was gone, it was a snowy November night and his jeans were round his ankles. The only plus side was that he hadn't been beaten up.

I remember the days when Levi jeans and Marlboro cigarettes were more sought after in Russia than Roubles and US dollars.

Terrible news and very strange that he's unable to remember anything. I always thought, contrary to Hawaii 5-0, Hawaii was relatively immune to this sort of stuff. Clearly not

Most of these places have serious levels of poverty and going off the beaten track is very risky at the best of times.
The report I heard said he had not gone out alone - so what happened to his mates?
I hope he recovers fully.
