Paris prosecutor promises update in Louvre heist probe

PARIS: Two men could face charges Wednesday over the spectacular theft of priceless jewels from the Louvre Museum, as a Paris prosecutor promised an update in the case. Dozens of detectives have been on the trail of four thieves who used a cherry-picker truck and cutting gear to break into a first-floor gallery at the world-renowned museum on the morning of October 19, then fled with jewelry estimated to be worth more than $102 million. But few details have emerged so far about how investigators have managed to track down the culprits, some of whom wore balaclavas and high-visibility vests.
