A police cordon near the scene of a robbery at the Strangnas Cathedral, in Strangnas, Sweden. The thieves, who have not been identified, and the jewels are being sought internationally via Interpol, Swedish police spokesman Stefan Dangardt said, noting the objects were a "national treasure" and would likely be "very difficult to sell". "We have as yet no value of the stolen goods, except that it is a national treasure," Dangardt told AFP. It was recovered several days later in a garbage bag left on a a countryside road, following an anonymous tip. The perpetrators of Tuesday's heist risk up to six years in prison for aggravated theft.
