French police investigating the brutal October robbery of Kim Kardashian in Paris have released a driver used by the star, along with two other people, a legal source has told Agence France-Presse. Fourteen people remain in custody, including a 72-year-old man who is suspected of being among the armed gang who took part in the break-in at a luxury apartment in central Paris and making off with jewelry valued at about €9 million ($9.4 million). Le Figaro had reported that the chauffeur was suspected of tipping off the gang that Kardashian’s bodyguard, Pascal Duvier, was not at the apartment because he was accompanying her sister Kourtney to a nearby nightclub.
