Two American citizens were arrested in Paris after being busted for spending the night inside the iconic Eiffel Tower.
Now, prosecutors in Paris are saying that the two men appear to have gotten stuck because of how drunk they were. The identities of the tourists was not disclosed. In video footage, police are seen shouting and blowing their whistle at the tourist before the police officer and the woman are seen walking away together. However, it’s not known where the woman was from or if any charges or fines were issued then.
The Italian authorities certainly take this kind of thing very seriously. If you're found guilty of"damaging a cultural asset," you can face a fine of at least €15,000 or up to five years in prison.
