FILE - This file image made available on Wednesday Aug. 1, 2018 by the Swedish Police, shows a collection of Swedish Crown jewels that were stolen from Strangnas cathedral. In a daring daytime heist, thieves in Sweden smashed glass show cases inside a cathedral and snatched 17th-century royal treasures estimated to be worth 65 million kronor ($7 million). A brazen burglary on Monday Nov. 25, 2019 from Dresden’s Green Vault, one of the world’s oldest museums, holding priceless treasures is another in a long history of daring European heists over the years.
