Twin brothers' identical DNA confounds rape investigators

It's the wacky hijinks of "The Parent Trap" meets the sinister plots of "SVU." Police in Marseilles, France, have arrested a pair of identical twin brothers because they're unsure which of them might be a serial rapist. DNA evidence helped police track down the twins, 24-year-old Yohan and Elwin, but they're reportedly so alike that regular DNA tests can't identify which of them allegedly sexually assaulted six women between September and January. Both brothers deny the charges, so cops are holding them both without bail until they conduct special tests to pick apart their DNA, which will reportedly cost up to 1 million euros ($1.3 million).
