Paris — Five more people have been arrested in the investigation into the theft of crown jewels from the Louvre Museum , but the treasures remain missing, the Paris prosecutor announced Thursday.

The five were detained late Wednesday night in Paris and the Paris region, Prosecutor Laure Beccuau told RTL radio. She didn't release their identities or other details.

One is suspected of being part of the four-person team that robbed the Louvre's Apollo Gallery in broad daylight Oct. 19, the prosecutor said.

She said the DNA-linked suspect was "one of the objectives of the investigators — we had him in our sights." Others taken into custody, she said, "may be able to inform us about how the events unfolded," but she did not release their identities or other details.
