00:00A group of well-trained and really organized thieves broke into the Louvre Museum in Paris
00:05and in a matter of minutes successfully made off with priceless jewels, at least one that
00:12once belonged to Napoleon's wife. This is not a new Ocean's Eleven movie. This actually happened
00:18yesterday, and what is even crazier, it was in broad daylight and the museum was open with
00:24tourists and security and, you know, people in it. The jewel thieves, dressed as construction
00:29workers, used an aerial lift to get up to a window, and then they had portable saws to cut
00:35through the glass of both the window and then the case where the jewels were on display.
00:39They made off with their haul on, are you ready for this, scooters. It's so very French. Now,
00:47it would seem in their haste they may have dropped one item, a crown, believed to belong to Napoleon's
00:52wife, Empress Eugenie, which was discovered damaged outside of the gallery.
