Trespasser allegedly climbs fire escape of Chris Rock’s NYC apartment: sources

A trespasser allegedly climbed the fire escape of Chris Rock’s Soho apartment — and may have been trying to film the famed comedian before cops scared him off, sources said Monday.

Rock, 58, looked out his window and saw a man standing on the metal scaffolding at about 8 p.m. Sunday, according to the sources and an NYPD spokesperson.

The unidentified man — who police sources said was wearing a dark jacket and pink crocs — appeared to be recording, the spokesperson said.

Rock called the cops — but when officers arrived, the creepy voyeur jumped into a white Mercedes and took off, sources said.

Authorities have not found the peeping Tom, who cops said is believed to be in his 20s.

The NYPD is investigating the incident.
