This heist was something you would see in a Hollywood movie.
Last weekend, multiple suspects stole prized jewels at the Louvre Museum in Paris.
French prosecutors report the jewels stolen in the heist are worth nearly $102 million.
Now French authorities have reported multiple suspects have been arrested in connection to the heist.
Fox News had more to report on the suspects being arrested:
Multiple suspects have been arrested in connection with the theft of crown jewels from the Louvre Museum in Paris last weekend, French officials said Sunday.
Paris prosecutor Laure Beccuau said that investigators made the arrests on Saturday evening, including one man who was taken into custody as he was about to leave the country from Charles de Gaulle airport.
Beccuau did not confirm the number of arrests, though French media BFM TV and Le Parisien newspaper earlier reported that two suspects had been arrested and taken into custody. She did not say whether the jewels had been recovered.
Thieves took less than eight minutes to steal jewels valued at 88 million euros ($102 million) — a high-profile heist that sparked a national reckoning and stunned the world.
The crew of thieves used a basket lift to scale the Louvre’s façade, forced open a window, smashed display cases and fled, according to French officials. The Louvre’s director Laurence des Cars acknowledged there was a “terrible failure” in the museum’s security.
Beccuau said investigators from a special police unit in charge of armed robberies, serious burglaries and art thefts made the arrests. She said the premature leak of information could hinder the work of over 100 investigators “mobilized to recover the stolen jewels and apprehend all of the perpetrators.”
Beccuau said further details will be unveiled after the suspects’ custody period ends.

The New York Post reported more details on the ladder truck:
The company that designed the ladder truck used in the daring Louvre robbery released an ad Friday spoofing the $100 million jewel heist — quipping that it’s perfect “If you’re in a hurry.”
The German firm Bocker posted the cheeky ad on Instagram showing the bucket-truck-style lift’s ladder left propped against the French museum, helping the crooks make their weekend escape.
The ad then cheekily bragged about how the device hauls “up to 400kg of treasures at 42m per minute — as quiet as a whisper.”

The lift was used by masked thieves to flee the world’s most-visited museum with eight pieces of priceless historic jewelry Sunday.Despite quipping about how it’s lift was perfect for those “in a hurry,” video showed a pair of thieves making an almost comically slow getaway in the basket in front of Parisians and tourists, before speeding off on waiting motorcycles.
