Taylor Swift: Man Allegedly Stalking the Pop Superstar Arrested Outside Her New York Home

A man frequently seen lingering near Taylor Swift home was arrested near her residence for open warrants, CNN reports.

Witnesses reported the disorderly man attempting to enter her building in Tribeca, leading to his arrest on Saturday.

Around 1:30 PM, neighbors made repeated calls to the police about the man, who had been hanging outside Taylor Swift home and attempting to open a door, according to a law enforcement source.

Upon police arrival, the man admitted he was there to see the pop superstar.

Police discovered active warrants and took him into custody on Saturday.

The arrest was made based on two open warrants from 2017 for failure to appear.

Representatives for Taylor Swift have not yet commented on the incident.

Persistent Behavior and Witnesses' Accounts

Multiple witnesses reported the suspect attempting to enter Taylor Swift home, with one eyewitness recalling seeing him at her door around 1 PM, according to Page Six.

The witness observed the man lurking in the neighborhood for several weeks, particularly around Swift's residence.

Another source, a nearby resident, mentioned witnessing the same individual "lurking" for a month, engaging in disruptive behavior such as sleeping on the stoop, chain-smoking, shouting, and making residents uncomfortable.

The neighbor shared concerns about the man's persistent presence, claiming to have called the police multiple times before any action was taken.

When officers arrived around 1:45 PM, they engaged with the alleged Taylor Swift stalker for a few minutes before arresting him.

The interaction was reportedly civil, with no resistance from the suspect.

Photos obtained by Page Six show the arrested individual, described as having shaggy brown hair and wearing a tan hoodie, khaki pants, a navy blue jacket, and tan gloves, being booked.

Taylor Swift's Recent Activities and Safety Concerns

Pop sensation Taylor Swift, a multi-Grammy Award winner at 34, was recently spotted in New York City attending a recording session at Electric Lady Studios, per the Daily Mail.

The artist bundled up in a black coat over a gray hooded shirt dress, paired her look with black leather shoes and a stylish suede Manu Atelier handbag.

Sources reveal that Swift plans to extend her stay in the city through the weekend to support her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, as he competes in an NFL game against the Buffalo Bills at Highmark Stadium upstate.

Swift's residence in Manhattan's Tribeca neighborhood has become a popular spot for her dedicated fans, some of whom often camp outside in hopes of catching a glimpse of the star.

However, her celebrity status has also attracted attention from less desirable individuals.

A man resembling the recent Taylor Swift Stalker was also seen on Friday, lingering outside the Superstar's apartment.

Despite a snowstorm affecting New York City, the individual, dressed in tan pants and a navy overcoat, attracted the attention of the NYPD.

While the interaction details remain unclear, the man was seen being spoken to by law enforcement.

This incident raises concerns about Swift's safety, especially since the artist has been vocal about her apprehensions regarding stalkers and unsettling fans.

Meanwhile, Taylor Swift admitted to carrying QuikClot army-grade bandage dressing as a precaution against potential threats during a 2021 interview with Elle.

She shared, "My fear of violence has continued into my personal life. I carry QuikClot army-grade bandage dressing, which is for gunshot or stab wounds... you get enough stalkers trying to break into your house and start prepping for bad things."
