Summary

In one of the year's most audacious crimes, thieves executed a flawless diamond heist at the Louvre in broad daylight. With just an extendable ladder and precise timing during lunch break, the robbers cut through a window and escaped with nine precious diamonds.. all in just eight minutes. But the real shocker? The password protecting the museum's video surveillance system was simply "louvre."
