French police arrest 2 linked to $102 million Louvre jewel heist

French police arrested two men in their early 30s, linked to a daring theft of crown jewels from the Louvre, after tracking them using DNA evidence. One suspect was captured at Charles de Gaulle Airport while attempting to flee to Algeria. Despite the arrests, the $102 million worth of jewels remains missing, with concerns they might be dismantled. Authorities believe the robbery involved a four-member gang possibly connected to a larger network, but hope the arrests indicate the jewels are still in Paris.
