Pair Arrested After Emerging From Manhole Near Hotel Where Netanyahu Stays, Police Say

On Thursday, the NYPD arrested Kevin Rodriguez, 26, and Samuel Reveron, 25, in connection with two men seen climbing out of a manhole on Park Avenue at 61st Street early Wednesday morning.
Both men admitted entering the sewer system to search for valuables washed away in storm drains, a practice authorities call "drain diving." Court documents show they acted together in the early morning hours.
Surveillance footage captured the trio emerging from the manhole Wednesday morning, while automatic license plate readers tracked their vehicles crossing the Queensboro Bridge around 4 a.m., alerting authorities to their VIN and license plate numbers.
Officials charged Rodriguez and Reveron with trespassing and conspiracy, though investigators are still searching for a third individual seen in the surveillance footage climbing out of the sewer.
Authorities ruled out terrorism despite heightened security sweeps near the United Nations General Assembly, noting the incident fits a pattern of unauthorized sewer entries reported in recent months.
