Inspector Clouseau? The mystery man in an AP photo after the Louvre jewel heist creates a buzz

It was shortly after the stunning heist of the crown jewels at the Louvre when Paris-based Associated Press photographer Thibault Camus caught in his frame a dapperly dressed young man walking by uniformed French police officers, their car blocking one of the museum gates. It wasn't a particularly great photo, with someone's shoulder obscuring part of the foreground, Camus told himself. Plus, Camus figured, the guy walking past the officers was unusually well dressed, in a trench coat, a jacket and tie and wearing a fedora, adding a touch of Paris couture to the scene.
