Robbery at the Louvre Museum - Paris

Police stand near the Pyramid at the Louvre Museum after a raid by 'experienced' thieves resulted in the theft of jewellery from priceless collection. According to the Home Secretary, three or four criminals arrived near the museum on a scooter. They then used a goods lift to access a room in the museum where jewellery is kept. They reportedly broke the windows of the room in question with an angle grinder before seizing the jewellery, which the Home Secretary described as ‘priceless’, and fleeing. The damage is still being assessed. The BRB (brigade for the repression of banditry) is in charge of the investigation, in Paris, France, on October 19, 2025. Photo by Florian Poitout/ABACAPRESS.COM
