French authorities arrested two suspects connected to the audacious Louvre Museum heist that shocked the world on October 19, 2025. One suspect was apprehended at Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport on Saturday night while attempting to board a flight to Algeria. The second suspect was arrested shortly after in the Paris region. Both suspects are believed to be from Seine-Saint-Denis and part of a four-person gang. The thieves, disguised as construction workers, used a basket lift to access the Apollo Gallery, stealing eight pieces of French Crown Jewels valued at €88 million ($102 million) in a seven-minute daylight raid. The gang used mini chainsaws to gain access and escaped on scooters.
