Welcome to the slammer.

French police have arrested a young woman for allegedly pilfering jewelry from Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose valued at a whopping $200,000.

Per Agence France-Presse, the perp is a model who returned the three stolen gold-and-diamond necklaces to a police station in central Paris. She had reportedly been a guest at the afterparty following the Gunners' show at Bercy stadium and claimed to investigators that she wasn't sure how she came into possession of the trinkets. Needless to say, she was arrested.

The news should please the 50-year-old Rose, who was said to be "fuming" over the heist.

A rep for Guns N' Roses was unavailable for comment.

The band meanwhile is continuing on with their European tour and are due to play Mönchengladbach, Germany, tonight.
