Around 4:35 a.m., three unidentified men were observed exiting a manhole on Park Avenue near East 61st Street in Manhattan, close to where Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to reside during the UN General Assembly. The individuals quickly left the scene in two different cars heading north on Park Avenue.

Story summary

Around 4:35 AM on Wednesday, three unidentified men emerged from a manhole near Park Avenue and East 61st Street in New York City’s Upper East Side, just steps away from where Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was set to stay during the United Nations General Assembly at the Loews Regency hotel. The trio fled in two separate vehicles after being spotted by authorities. Two men, Kevin Rodriguez and Samuel Reveron, both 25 years old and Venezuelan citizens, were arrested later that week for trespassing and conspiracy related to this incident. They allegedly admitted to entering the sewer system in search of valuables washed into storm drains. Authorities noted the timing near high-profile events required additional security measures but found no direct threat posed by the suspects to dignitaries or hotel guests.
