New Yorkers Fear An Underground Sewer Community Is Forming

Some residents are worried that there's a real-life sewer community forming in New York.

This comes after another person was spotted emerging from a manhole this week.

It's adding to a growing list of sightings that have rattled residents and prompted a warning from officials.

It is not an isolated incident. Last month, three people climbed out of a manhole near Penn Station during the pre-dawn hours. Before that, there were separate sightings in Brooklyn and Queens back in May, and another on Long Island in August.

The New York City Department of Environmental Protection is reminding the public that while crawling through the city's sewer and tunnel system may have a certain underground mystique to it, it is both dangerous and illegal.

The sewers contain toxic gases, fast-moving water, and zero lighting. People have died down there.

Whether this is a group of thrill-seekers, urban explorers, or something else entirely, the NYPD has taken notice. No arrests have been publicly announced in connection with the recent sightings.

For now, New Yorkers are left wondering exactly who, or what, is living beneath their streets.
