| [hide]">VICTORVILLE, Calif. - A woman here tried to get rid of unwanted houseguests by gassing them. A family friend introduced the 51-year-old woman to Kevin Frye and Andrew King and she agreed to let them spend the night, investigators said. But they overstayed their welcome -- refusing to leave for six weeks as they allegedly sold drugs from her apartment. The woman finally decided to open her oven's natural-gas line in hopes of driving them away. Even after the apartment was filled with gas, however, the houseguests remained. The fire department was called about 05:30 Monday by a woman saying she was overcome by the fumes. The 51-year-old woman was so sick she had to be taken to the hospital, in tears all the way, paramedics said. There was no explosion and no one was seriously hurt. According to a deputy in the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department, the woman told local police she and her 59-year-old boyfriend were too afraid of their houseguests to call the sheriff's department for help. Frye, 27, and King, 29, were arrested and booked for investigation of allegedly selling cocaine from inside the apartment. Deputies reportedly confiscated 10 cocaine rocks during a search of the apartment.
