BOSTON, MA — The police department is looking to identify six people it believes were involved in a trespassing incident at South Station Tower last month.

The incident occurred at approximately 6:38 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 7, at 680 Atlantic Ave. According to police, building security video showed four people entering the parking garage before going through an unlocked service corridor door and up a stairwell to the 52nd floor. Two more people followed the same route shortly after and covered a security camera with a jacket before entering the floor.

Investigators believe the first group stayed for approximately 45 minutes and the second for approximately 90 minutes. Both groups are believed to have left through a stairwell leading down toward the Amtrak terminal level.
