Two men have been arrested in connection with this week\u2019s mysterious sighting of sewer invaders emerging from a New York City manhole cover, court records revealed on Friday.<\/p>\n

Samuel Reveron, 25, and Kevin Rodriguez, 26, were each booked on two counts of trespassing.<\/p>\n

The pair were implicated in the latest sewer incident<\/a>, in which men were seen climbing out from underground near East 61st Street and Park Avenue at about 1:38 a.m. Wednesday, according to a criminal complaint. <\/p>\n

At around 4 a.m., \u201cthe individuals were observed getting back into the vehicles and driving in tandem over the Queensboro Bridge, alerting the automatic license plate readers as to the vehicle\u2019s\u2019 VIN and license plate numbers,\u201d the complaint said.<\/p>\n

Reveron and Rodriguez, who own the vehicles, both \u201cidentified themselves as the individuals that entered the manhole\u201d early Wednesday morning, according to the court document.<\/p>\n

They \u201cboth described in sum and substance that they entered the manhole together to look for valuables that get washed away in the storm drains and sewers,\u201d authorities said. <\/p>\n

Reveron and Rodriguez have not been charged in other sewer break-ins, but the NYPD said earlier that Wednesday\u2019s incident \u201cfits that same criteria\u201d<\/a> previous cases of unauthorized sewer entries.<\/p>\n
