A week after thieves stormed the Louvre and ripped eight priceless pieces from France’s crown jewels, the country is nursing a deep cultural wound — even as Paris authorities on Sunday announced arrests tied to the haul.

A man who stepped into a photo taken outside the Louvre in Paris amid the investigation into the recent brazen crown jewels heist at the famous museum has gone viral.

Does a photo show a well-dressed French detective working the case of the Crown Jewels stolen from the Louvre? No, that's not true: The original poster later said it was a "fantasy version" she did not regret posting.

PARIS (AP) — The director of the Louvre Museum on Wednesday acknowledged a ″terrible failure″ at the Paris monument after a stunning daylight crown jewel heist at the world’s most-visited museum, and said she offered to resign but it was refused.
