Priceless works of art have been stolen from the Chinese museum at Fontainebleau Castle near Paris, including a replica crown of the King of Siam given to France's emperor in the mid-1900s.

Authorities say the thieves were very professional, managing to break into the well-secured museum and steal the artwork within just 7 minutes.
