‘Priceless’ jewellery stolen from Louvre within a few minutes, says French minister

The Louvre, the world’s most-visited museum, was suddenly closed on Sunday after a break-in targeted pieces in two glass cases in its Apollon gallery, where the French crown jewels are held. The thieves struck at about 9.30am local time, said the French interior minister, Laurent Nuñez, adding that three or four suspects had fled. Their route was known, and police were investigating whether it was a gang known to them for other crimes, he added
