It's a start but if there were "several robbers", why was only one arrested? I hope they don't have "catch and release" that is so prevalent in many places in the US.

Actually, apparently the French side justice system acts pretty quickly and with fairly long prison sentences, versus the Dutch side anyway.

Hopefully that is the case but I still find it odd they only arrested one when several were mentioned in the article.
