Saudi Princess Says Robbed of Million-Euro Watch in Paris

A Saudi princess told police she was attacked in central Paris and robbed of a million-euro ($1.1 million) watch, authorities said Friday.

She reported to police she was "violently" robbed on Thursday in the French capital's second arrondissement by two men, who then escaped with her high-end Swiss brand Richard Mille watch.

The woman was not hospitalized, police said.

A specialist police unit that handles armed robberies is investigating the incident.

The Saudi embassy could not be immediately reached for comment.
