Thieves took €88 million from the Louvre in daylight

Original: €88 million. That's what thieves walked out of the Louvre with last October, half an hour after opening, in daylight. Oc

Reports recirculate that thieves stole jewels worth €88 million from the Louvre in Paris last October, pulling off the heist within half an hour of the museum opening, in broad daylight. Commentators compare the operation to Ocean's Eleven, and the sheer audacity and speed of the robbery is fuelling renewed discussion about museum security.

Why now: The dramatic scale and audacity of the Louvre heist keeps drawing attention and comparisons to film heists.
