PARIS: French authorities have detained two of the suspected robbers believed to have stolen precious crown jewels from the Louvre in a museum heist that stunned the world, officials said Sunday. A swarm of investigators had been mobilized to track down the thieves who robbed the world-renowned museum in broad daylight on October 19, making off with jewelry worth an estimated $102 million in just a few minutes.

The video shows two people using a slow-moving lift in broad daylight to escape the museum, where they stole eight crown jewels within just minutes.

The same day masked thieves stole millions in crown jewels from the Louvre, another French museum was robbed of 2,000 gold and silver coins.
