Tourist arrested at Yoko Ono's NY building
Authorities say a Korean tourist faces a misdemeanor trespassing charge after he somehow got into the Dakota apartment building in Manhattan and rode the elevator with Yoko Ono.
Police say the man was heading down to the lobby Jan. 12 when the elevator coincidentally stopped on Ono's floor. She got in. The tourist didn't recognize John Lennon's widow.
The man was detained when he got out at the lobby because security had spotted him on the roof. Authorities say he went to the building to take photos and got in through a service entrance.
His case is on track for dismissal if he completes a day of community service within six months.
His attorney didn't immediately return a call Thursday.
Lennon was gunned down outside the Dakota on Dec. 8, 1980.
