David Crowe was seen on Saturday and again on Monday trying to enter Taylor Swift’s home in Manhattan.
A 33-year-old man was arrested twice within three days after stalking Taylor Swift outside her Manhattan home, the police said on Tuesday.
The man, David Crowe, of Seattle, was charged by the police on Monday with two counts of harassment and two counts of stalking. A neighbor and a security guard at the pop star’s building in TriBeCa had spotted Mr. Crowe, who was first arrested near Ms. Swift’s residence over the weekend.
Around 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, security personnel called 911 to report that Mr. Crowe had tried to enter the residence, the police said.
When the officers looked up Mr. Crowe’s name in police records, they saw he had two arrest warrants from 2017: one for an open container and the other for disorderly conduct in the Greenpoint neighborhood of Brooklyn. A judge had issued the warrants after Mr. Crowe failed to show up to court to answer those summonses.
Mr. Crowe was arrested on those warrants Saturday, but was not charged for attempting to enter Ms. Swift’s residence.

Swift’s accomplishments as an artist — culturally, critically,
and commercially — are so legion that to recount
them seems almost beside the point.

On Monday, around 6 p.m., Mr. Crowe returned to Ms. Swift’s building, the police said. A neighbor on the block and at least one member of the singer’s security team saw Mr. Crowe and called 911. Mr. Crowe was “acting erratically,” the police said.
Mr. Crowe’s arraignment on the stalking and harassment charges was pending, according to a spokesman for the Manhattan district attorney. It was unclear on Tuesday who is representing Mr. Crowe in court.
It was also unknown whether Ms. Swift was home during the incidents. She did not post on Instagram or X about the charges. Her publicist did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
On Sunday, Ms. Swift attended the playoff football game in New York between the Buffalo Bills and the Kansas City Chiefs. Her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, is a tight end for the Chiefs.
Ms. Swift has been nominated for half a dozen Grammy Awards this year, including best record and best pop solo performance for her anthem “Anti-Hero”; best pop vocal album and album of the year for “Midnights”; and best pop duo and group performance for the song “Karma.” “Anti-Hero” was also nominated for song of the year.
In December, Ms. Swift was named Time magazine’s person of the year.
“Swift’s accomplishments as an artist — culturally, critically, and commercially — are so legion that to recount them seems almost beside the point,” the magazine wrote.
