Global Moderators FRIDAY THE 13 Posted Thursday at 10:15 Posted Thursday at 10:15 Five more suspects have been arrested over their involvement in the Louvre heist, Paris' public prosecutor has said. They were arrested on Wednesday night in the Paris region, Laure Beccuau's office said. A main suspect was among those taken into custody, AFP reported. The new arrests come after two men "partially recognised" their involvementin the brazen theft on Wednesday. Items worth €88m (£76m; $102m) were taken from the world's most-visited museum on 19 October, when four thieves broke into the building in broad daylight. The precious jewels had not been recovered yet, Beccuau told French radio station RTL on Thursday. She added that DNA from one of those arrested could be linked to the crime scene and that the person is thought to be part of the four-man team that carried out the heist, who were caught on CCTV. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cz91jnyelq2o Quote
