- A man was arrested near Taylor Swift's townhome in New York on Saturday.
- Witnesses told the New York Post that the man tried to enter the singer's home.
- Swift was in Buffalo for a Chiefs game Sunday; it's unclear whether she was home during the arrest.
Taylor Swift's townhouse in New York City appears to have been the target of another break-in attempt, with a man arrested Saturday near the singer's Tribeca home after the police responded to a report of a disorderly person.
Witnesses said the man tried but failed to enter the superstar's townhouse in the early afternoon, Page Six reported.
The police would not confirm a break-in attempt at Swift's home, but an NYPD representative on Sunday said officers arrested a man on the same street when they were told he had tried to open a door to a building. The man was charged on an unrelated 2017 warrant out of Brooklyn indicating he'd failed to answer a summons, the person said.
Authorities did not release the man's name. It wasn't clear whether Swift was home at the time.
Shortly after, Swift was spotted in Buffalo on Sunday at Highmark Stadium. Wearing a beige jacket with the Chiefs logo and a red beanie, the singer came to support her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. Per the New York Post, Swift was greeted by cheers and boos from Bills fans.
Accompanying Swift was Jason Kelce, Travis' brother, who was spotted shirtless with a beer in hand.
The Tribeca townhouse has been the scene of several other break-ins and attempts when Swift wasn't there, with some suspects accused of stalking.
In 2022, a man was charged with trespassing and stalking after authorities said he entered two Tribeca residences linked to Swift. Also that year, a man was arrested on suspicion of crashing a car into the townhouse and was said to have told the police he wouldn't leave until he met with Swift.
In 2018, another man was said to have broken into her townhouse and taken a nap. The suspect in that case was charged a year later with another break-in at the same building after serving a jail sentence.
The police say stalking suspects have also been arrested at some of Swift's other homes, including ones in Beverly Hills, California, and in Watch Hill, Rhode Island.
Representatives for Swift didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
