American Tourists Arrested for Sleeping in Eiffel Tower
Two American tourists were arrested in Paris after spending the night in a restricted area of the Eiffel Tower. The men were found by security guards during a routine check and were believed to be intoxicated. This incident follows recent cases of tourists climbing on the Trevi Fountain in Rome and scratching their names into the Colosseum. Damaging cultural assets can result in fines or imprisonment, but in this case, as no damage was found, the trespassing fine was dismissed.
