Suspects arrested over theft of jewels at Louvre museum in Paris | BBC News


Two suspects have been arrested over the theft of precious crown jewels from Paris’s Louvre museum, French media say.

The Paris prosecutor’s office said one of the men had been taken into custody as he was preparing to take a flight from Charles de Gaulle Airport.

Items worth €88m (£76m; $102m) were taken from the world’s most-visited museum last Sunday, when four thieves wielding power tools broke into the building in broad daylight.

The Paris prosecutor’s office said in a statement that the arrests had been made on Saturday evening, without specifying how many people had been taken into custody.
