French investigators have found jewels valued at euro18 million ($25 million) hidden in a Paris rain sewer _ part of the spectacular 2008 heist from luxury jeweler Harry Winston's Paris boutique. Nineteen rings and three sets of earrings - one pair valued at euro14 million ($19.5 million) - were dug up from a drain at a house in the working class Paris suburb of Seine - Saint - Denis, police said Tuesday March 8, 2011, confirming a report on Europe-1 radio. The bold Harry Winston robbery on Dec. 5, 2008, netted the thieves _ some dressed as women and wearing wigs _ gems and bejeweled watches worth up to euro85 million ($118.1 million), police said.
