A gang of professional thieves broke into the Louvre Museum this morning at about 9:30 local time and made off with several pieces (believed to be 8 or 9) of rare jewelry, including a tiara belonging to Emperor Napoleon III's wfe (which was later found outside after being damaged during the robbery). They used a lift to get to an upper window and a grinder to cut the window pane. The entire robbery took about 10 minutes. The French police have assigned their top detective to the case:

Two men have been arrested in connection with the robbery, one at the airport trying to leave the country. Two other suspects are still at large.
