Louvre Museum In Paris Closed After Robbery

The investigative police unit is present on the riverside of the Louvre Museum after a robbery in Paris, France, on October 19, 2025. Robbers break into the Louvre and flee with jewelry on the morning of October 19, 2025, a source close to the case says, adding that its value is still being evaluated. A police source says an unknown number of thieves arrive on a scooter armed with small chainsaws and use a goods lift to reach the room they are targeting. Here is the freight elevator used by the thieves to access the room. (Photo by Jerome Gilles/NurPhoto via Getty Images)
