The video shows how the thieves made it in and out of the museum's Apollo Gallery almost seamlessly with the nation's crown jewels. It's been three months since the monumental jewel heist at the Musée du Louvre astonished the world, and the CCTV footage from inside the museum on that fateful day has been revealed to the public at last. Released on the investigative broadcast television program Complément d'Enquête on France TV, the three-minute clip shows how two thieves made it in and out of the museum's Apollo Gallery almost seamlessly with the nation's crown jewels. The clip begins with a group of around five security guards clustered at the threshold of the evacuated gallery, inching closer and then quickly scattering as the first thief managed to burst in through the window with a portable circular saw. Covered head-to-toe in all black and donning a hi-vis construction vest, he beelined to the central display cases holding the jewels, quickly followed by his accomplice, who climbed in right behind him. In addition to the exposure of the woefully outdated security system at the Louvre, security staff have been lambasted online for not intervening in the robbery. The museum has emphasized that they're trained to prioritize visitor safety and are neither equipped nor expected to confront during an attack or burglary. https://lnkd.in/ePQR7Qgy
