Authorities in Paris have arrested five more individuals in connection with the recent Crown Jewel heist at the Louvre Museum. One of the suspects, identified through DNA evidence, is believed to have been part of the team that carried out the robbery in broad daylight, according to the Paris public prosecutor.

The other four individuals are being questioned for their potential knowledge about the theft. Despite these arrests, the stolen jewels, valued at 88 million euros, have not yet been recovered. Two additional suspects arrested earlier have partially admitted involvement and face preliminary charges related to organized theft and conspiracy.

Louvre heist: Five new suspects arrested as search for jewels continues

Almost two weeks after the Crown Jewel heist at the Louvre in Paris, five more people were arrested Wednesday overnight. One of them, who was identified by DNA, is suspected of being part of the four-person team that robbed the museum in broad daylight. That's according to a Paris public prosecutor. The prosecutor added that the four other arrests concerned people who could provide information about how the theft unfolded. The latest arrests did not help recover the stolen pieces, valued at 88 million euros. On Saturday, two other men were arrested and were said to have since partially admitted their involvement in the robbery. They face preliminary charges of theft committed by an organized gang and criminal conspiracy, and are expected to be held in provisional detention.
