sexually assaulting one of them.
The driver, surnamed Chan (詹), told police he used a syringe to inject sleeping drugs into unopened yogurt drinks that he offered to three female tourists he picked up in Taipei’s Wanhua District Thursday afternoon.
That evening, after taking the three to sightsee in New Taipei’s Ruifang District, Chan drove them to Shilin Night Market. During the ride, two of the women fell asleep while the third remained awake, police said.
The taxi arrived at Shilin around 9 p.m. and the passenger who had remained awake visited the night market alone, they said.
Chan then drove the two sleeping women to a secluded area near the night market before sexually assaulting one of them, police said. [FULL STORY]
