Melbourne, Feb 4 (ANI): A member of teenage gang, that has been accused of robbing homes of Hollywood celebrities, revealed that they broke into the Paris Hilton's home using a key she left under her door mat.

According to US ABC News, Nick Prugo, who is a part of the gang dubbed the "Bling Ring", said that Hilton was their first target because they considered her "dumb".

"Like, who would leave a door unlocked? Who would leave a lot of money lying around?" he said.

Prugo also claimed that they found five grams of cocaine in her house, which they also stole.

While talking to Good Morning America, Prugo said he got caught up in the robberies due to peer pressure.

"There was a definite thrill to it," News.com.au quoted him as saying.

He added he was "just trying to keep my friends".

However, despite Prugo's admissions to police and the public, he has pleaded not guilty. (ANI)
