16 People Arrested Over Kim K Robbery

French police arrested 16 people in raids Monday over the armed robbery of Kim Kardashian in Paris last year based on DNA found at the crime scene, according to a report.

Police swooped in the Paris region and the south of France following forensic work at the luxury Paris residence where the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star was tied up and robbed of jewelry in October. A source says,

One of the DNA samples matched an individual known to police for robbery and criminal offenses, who is considered a major thug.

The source adds that investigators were able to put in place a surveillance operation and build up a picture of the criminal network behind the robbery. Money and documents were also seized in Monday’s raids.

On duty. Life is not about getting or having. It’s about giving and being. Nobody needs to give you permission to be great at what you do and who you are. ?: Monday, 3rd October 2016 at 02:35 (am)

She was tied up and locked her in the bathroom, while they fled with jewelry. At the time, Kim’s bodyguard Pascal Duvier was not at the scene because he was providing security for Kim’s sister Kourtney at a Paris nightclub.
