3 People Spotted Climbing Out of Another New York City Sewer
Police said the incident was captured on surveillance video and the investigation remains ongoing with no arrests made.
- Early Wednesday, three unidentified individuals emerged from a sewer on Manhattan's Upper East Side near 535 Park Avenue before fleeing in two vehicles traveling northbound, according to the NYPD.
- This incident follows a series of reports involving people entering or emerging from sewer systems across New York this year, with similar occurrences documented near Penn Station, in Queens, Brooklyn, and on Long Island.
- NYPD surveillance cameras captured the individuals fleeing in a silver sedan driven by a man in a black hoodie and a four-door vehicle driven by a man in a black shirt and gray shorts.
- The Department of Environmental Protection inspected the sewer and confirmed the infrastructure is safe, though the DEP stressed that entering the system is illegal and dangerous due to noxious gases and flooding risks.
- Security remains heightened near the United Nations General Assembly in New York City this week, while police noted that in previous cases, individuals claimed they were searching underground infrastructure for valuables.
