French prosecutors say suspects have been arrested over the Louvre heist that stunned the world a week ago, when thieves needed less than eight minutes to steal eight objects worth 88 million euros. Arrests came Saturday night, with one man stopped at Charles de Gaulle Airport; officials did not confirm how many were held or whether jewels were recovered. Officials described intruders using a basket lift to scale the facade, force a window, smash cases and flee. One imperial crown was later found outside, damaged but repairable. Visitors voiced relief, while some wondered if the jewels can be recovered.
