Four more arrested in connection with Louvre heist, Paris prosecutor says

Four more people were arrested in connection with the October heist at the Louvre, Paris prosecutors announced Tuesday.

Two men, aged 38 and 39, and two women, aged 31 and 40, were arrested on Tuesday, Laure Beccuau, a prosecutor for the city, said in a statement. All four people are from the Paris region.

The four people are being questioned by investigators in connection with the October 19 heist, Beccuau said.

Tuesday’s arrests are in addition to the four already charged in the case. Three men and one woman were charged with organized theft and criminal conspiracy to commit crimes and offenses, according to the statement.

Last month, the group duped security systems and used power tools in broad daylight to steal millions in jewels from the famed Paris museum.
