5 more suspects arrested over Louvre jewel heist

LONDON -- Five more suspects have been arrested in connection with the Oct. 19 jewel heist at the Louvre Museum in Paris, according to Paris Prosecutor Laure Beccuau.

The arrests took place on Wednesday in the Seine-Saint-Denis region in the suburbs of Paris, though French authorities have not yet named any of the suspects.

Beccuau, speaking on French radio station RTL, said the stolen jewelry has still not been found but that police believe one of the suspects arrested in Wednesday's raid could be a major person of interest due to his DNA being found at the scene of the crime.

French police told ABC News that one of the suspects arrested Wednesday had already been identified and was under surveillance for several days.

No plan for safe escape.

Still hanging around Paris?
Police finding them so quickly?

They are not The Jackal.

Heist paid for in advance by a wealthy collector?
Hold the goods hostage?
