Stalker takes a nap in Taylor Swift's New York home during break-in
A stalker broke into Taylor Swift's New York City townhouse and took a nap on Friday, police said.
Officers investigating a reported break-in found 22-year-old Roger Alvarado asleep in the pop star's home in the Tribeca neighbourhood.
Alvarado, of Homestead, Florida, was arrested on charges of stalking, burglary, criminal mischief and trespassing.
It was not clear whether he has a lawyer who can speak for him.
Alvarado was arrested at the same address on February 13 on charges of breaking the front door with a shovel.
Swift was not home during Friday's break-in.

The multiplatinum-selling recording artist has dealt with stalkers on both coasts.
Police said a Colorado man arrested on April 14 outside a Beverly Hills home owned by Swift had a knife, a rope and ammunition.
Prescription medications, including oxycodone, were also found and Julius Sandrock, 38, told arresting officers that he had depression, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder and manic episodes, according to a temporary restraining order.
The arrest followed the April 8 arrest of a homeless man on suspicion of trespassing after he tried to climb a wall at the same property and ignored warnings by security guards to leave.
Swift was not at the home.
Justin Lilly, 23, was charged with a misdemeanor and sentenced to three days in jail.
