In a surprising occurrence, this prestigious Parisian museum ceased operations after a daring heist that saw culprits escape with nine high-value artifacts.
Although information is limited, sources suggest a trio of disguised men broke into the museum soon after it opened today.
The suspects allegedly utilized a construction hoist that was part of ongoing refurbishment work to access the famous Apollo Gallery, found facing the Seine River wing.
The ornate gallery is home to the surviving pieces of the nation's monarchical treasures. To gain entry, the thieves shattered display cases before making their getaway with these pilfered items.
The suspects reportedly got away via a motor-scooter. Law enforcement are actively assessing the estimated value of the haul, as the Louvre stays closed for visitors for the time being.
This incident has raised serious concerns regarding safety measures within one of the world's top cultural sites.
