Artworks stolen from Renoir Museum on French Riviera in latest heist

Two thieves broke into the Renoir Museum in Cagnes-sur-Mer, southern France, stealing four artworks and leaving one behind. Mayor Bryan Masson, a member of the far-right National Rally party, confirmed the incident, estimating the stolen art's value at €9 million. The break-in was captured on surveillance footage, and local police responded within five minutes. The thieves reportedly entered through a broken window, and the case is being investigated by the police organized crime squad. This follows a similar high-profile theft from the Louvre Museum in Paris last year, where eight artworks valued at €88 million were stolen during a daylight robbery.
