Two CNN producers were arrested on Tuesday for trying to break into the World Trade Center, the NJ.com reported.
Connor Boals, 26, and Yon Pomrenze, 35, were charged with trespassing, obstructing governmental administration, and disorderly conduct.
According to a report in the New York Post, the producers were trying to test security at the site, which was scrutinized after a 16-year-old boy passed a security guard and made it to the rooftop.
The camera equipment Boals and Pomrenze were equipped with was seized by police.
A spokesperson for CNN told the Post that neither producer was on assignment during the time of their break-in attempt.
On Monday, four men were arrested for base jumping from the World Trade Center in September.
NYPD Commissioner William Bratton issued a statement detailing the arrests of James Brady, Kyle Hartwell, Marko Markovich, and Andrew Rossig -- all charged with burglary, reckless endangerment, and jumping from a structure.
"These men violated the law and placed themselves, as well as others, in danger," Bratton said. "These arrests should send a message to anyone thinking about misusing a landmark this way."
The safety and security of the nation's tallest building was also criticized in this situation.
Timothy Parlatore, an attorney for one of the men arrested, said they got into the site through a hole in the fence.
"One of the first things my client said to me was that how surprised he was at how there was no security whatsoever -- how easy it was to just walk right up there in something that the mayor has just recently described as the No. 1 terrorist target in the world," he said.
