Two robbers executed a high-profile daylight heist at Paris’ Louvre Museum, stealing eight priceless crown jewels from the Galerie d’Apollon in just seven minutes. Captured on camera, the thieves, dressed in construction gear, used a hydraulic lift to escape after cutting through a glass display case. The stolen items, including tiaras, necklaces, earrings, and brooches once owned by French royalty, contain thousands of diamonds and other gems, valued at over $102 million. The museum, home to masterpieces like the Mona Lisa, temporarily closed and reopened Wednesday, highlighting both the audacity and precision of the theft.
