PARIS — French authorities have arrested four additional suspects in connection with the high-profile heist that targeted the Louvre Museum earlier this year. The arrests were made following an extended investigation involving national police and cultural property units.
According to officials, the suspects are believed to have played various roles in planning and facilitating the theft, which involved valuable artifacts connected to the museum’s collection and storage network. Details of the items recovered or still missing have not been fully disclosed as the case remains active.
The new arrests follow earlier detentions and expand the scope of the inquiry, which now focuses on a wider group suspected of coordinating the operation. Investigators continue to trace links between the individuals and possible trafficking networks.
Further updates are expected as authorities move forward with the case.
