Rk New York police investigate mysterious cases of people coming out of manholes

3 hours ago

NYPD is investigating unusual incidents where groups of people are seen emerging from manholes in New York City, with videos showing this activity happening overnight.
Authorities found no threats, damage, or nefarious items in the sewer systems after inspections by the Emergency Services Unit and Environmental Protection Department, and no arrests or injuries have been reported.
One theory suggests these individuals might be searching for valuables in the sewage, based on reports from law enforcement, with recent incidents occurring in Brooklyn neighborhoods like Gravesend and Williamsburg in late-night hours.
Similar events were reported in Queens earlier in May, involving people in strange suits entering sewers, and it is unclear if all incidents are connected, as surveillance footage showed them wearing hip waders and using flashlights.
