French police arrest two men over €88m Louvre jewel heist

One man arrested at Charles de Gaulle airport and another just outside Paris, officials confirm

French police have arrested two suspects believed to have helped steal crown jewels worth an estimated 88m (76m) from the Louvre museum in Paris, officials have said, a week after one of the country's most spectacular heists in decades.

The Paris public prosecutor confirmed media reports on Sunday that one man had been detained at about 10pm (8pm UK time) on Saturday at the capital's Charles de Gaulle airport by officers from the armed robberies and serious burglaries squad.
