6 year oldA TAYLOR Swift-obsessed man was busted after allegedly breaking into the singer’s New York townhouse early Friday.
Roger Alvarado, 22, from Florida, was arrested after cops responded to a midnight call about a burglary at the swanky Soho address — a three-storey $18 million property Swift purchased a few months ago but wasn’t living in.
Police found a ladder leading up to a broken window — and Alvarado sleeping in Swift’s otherwise empty bed, police sources said.
The burglar had also used the singer’s shower.
Alvarado has been charged with felony stalking, along with burglary, criminal mischief and criminal trespass.
Swift spent a total $47.7 million on three adjacent properties at the location; the one Alvarado was allegedly found inside had been purchased by the singer this past fall for $18 million.
That townhouse has been in the news before when French politician Dominique Strauss-Kahn rented the place while he was under house arrest in 2011 for allegedly attempting to rape a hotel maid.
Those charges were eventually dropped.
