NEW YORK — A break-in at Paris Hilton’s Los Angeles home more than two years ago has led to a New York lawsuit over $60,000 in borrowed gems.
Insurer Allianz Global sued Hilton on Wednesday. The Munich-based insurer says jeweler Damiani lent Hilton the gems in 2007. The lawsuit says the Damiani jewels were taken, along with about $2 million worth of other baubles, in the December 2008 burglary.
Police returned a Louis Vuitton bag full of jewelry to Hilton after making arrests in 2009. The suit says Hilton then ignored Allianz’s requests to return the Damiani gems.
Her spokeswoman says Hilton’s representatives haven’t yet reviewed the suit and have no immediate response.
