FRANCE – The director of the Louvre in Paris faced lawmakers Wednesday after a brazen daylight heist netted more than $100 million in jewels from the museum’s Apollo Gallery.
Laurence des Cars said she offered her resignation, but it was rejected, calling the incident “a terrible defeat.”

The Louvre has reopened, but the Apollo Gallery remains closed.
