City in Kazakhstan Where Villagers Fall Asleep Randomly Evacuated

A City in Kazakhstan that gained national attention when it was reported that for some reason their citizens were falling asleep randomly is apparently evacuating everyone. 

Until recently no one knew why everyone would fall asleep on random places in the city.  They could be walking around and fall asleep or walking their dog and falling asleep.  

Recent findings suggest that the effect is due to some low toxicity.

The effect was so strong that sometimes people fell asleep for days.  Today there's still no clear reason, some people suggest it's probably due to carbon monoxide.  But others have doubts of this idea; 
"Carbon monoxide poisoning doesn't just make you fall down and go to sleep,"  "There's a progress of symptoms: nausea, headache, [and] eventually you can have confusion and unconsciousness. But you move slowly through that progression."
Now they are evacuating the people as a precaution and to possibly find a reason to why this is happening.

Take the people out and see if they still fall asleep -

Vice has the whole story (pretty long read), check it out here.

I guess this town is the perfect place for a dream home.
