American sweetheart and Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter Taylor Swift has had her share of gropers and stalkers, but things rose to a whole new level in the early morning hours on January 27 when a drunk guy from Virginia crashed his car into her New York City apartment building.
Morgan Mank, 31, was arrested shortly after 3 a.m. Thursday after driving the wrong way on Franklin Street in the Tribeca neighborhood, where Swift owns a townhouse and several apartments in an adjacent building, a police spokesperson said. ~ ABC News
A spokesperson for the NYPD said that Mank drunkenly crashed into the apartment building in an attempt to gain entry. He never did get inside. Rumors abound but were not confirmed by police that, “Mank told officers he wouldn’t leave until he met with Swift.”
The drunken driver and psycho fan was transported to a nearby hospital where he was later taken into custody and charged with driving while intoxicated and driving while ability impaired. NBC in New York reported that a phone number listed for Mank in Ashburn, Virginia, has been disconnected.
Taylor Swift is regularly in the news regarding her singing, songwriting or philanthropic activities and was in the headlines earlier this week when U.K. singer Damon Albarn, formerly of rock band The Blur, accused her of not writing her own music.
After coming under fire from Taylor and her legion of fans, Albarn quickly apologized.
