Crichton Robbed, But OK
SF author Michael Crichton was robbed at gunpoint and tied up by two men who ransacked his home, but he wasn't harmed, his publicist told a newspaper. The author of Jurassic Park and Timeline and creator of the television series ER was robbed shortly before 5 a.m. on Sept. 23. Police wouldn't confirm that Crichton was the victim, but said the crime was committed at a home believed to be owned by the author, the Associated Press reported.
"An incident did occur, but everybody is fine, and that's all I can say, because a kid is involved," publicist Joseph Marich told the Santa Monica (Calif.) Daily Press. Crichton, 59, has a daughter in her early teens, the AP reported. Police said some items were taken from the house, but the value was not immediately determined.

Oh dear
I wonder if this might spark a new scary muse for the author.
