Watch: Thugs who ‘gassed and robbed British radio star Nick Grimshaw’ in Ibiza are arrested

THUGS accused of gassing British radio DJ Nick Grimshaw before robbing the villa he was staying in have been arrested in Ibiza.

Grimshaw and his 81-year-old mother Eileen were sedated with gas and robbed while on holiday at a luxury villa on the holiday island.

The former BBC Radio 1 breakfast presenter rented the home on the Balearic island last month to celebrate his 40th birthday with his family and fiance, Mesh Henry.

The Sun newspaper reported that the raid was carried out by a gang with previous form for similar crimes and waited for everyone to go to bed before striking.

They pumped in sedative gas into the home and then broke in wearing hazmat suits.

Nobody was physically hurt in the attack.

The Guarda Civil today showed the moment the alleged perpetrators were arrested.

In a video shared by the force, CCTV from their many alleged attacks shows them entering homes at night while donning all black clothes and face coverings.

One incident shows the moment a victim discovers a thief in his home, before being attacked as he tries to kick them out.

Police seized scores of mobile phones, laptops, documents and cash across multiple raids.
