美国流浪汉溜进总统套房睡觉 据美国媒体11月6日报道，美国一位流浪汉日前偷偷溜进宾夕法尼亚州匹兹堡一家豪华酒店的总统套房，并心安理得地睡了个好觉。可惜梦醒时分等待他的却是牢狱之灾。 ? A homeless man has gone from the proverbial（众所周知的） penthouse（顶层公寓） to the big house after he was found sleeping in the presidential suite at one of Pittsburghs swankiest hotels. Jeffrey Lennon Watson, 48, told police he was from Los Angeles and was passing through the city to return to California when he was nabbed by security at the Omni William Penn Hotel on Tuesday night, police spokeswoman Diane Richard said Wednesday. ? Hotel guests were checking into the suite about 7:30 pm when they saw Watson sleeping on a couch and notified hotel staff, police said. Hotel security officers woke him up, took him to their office and called police, Richard said. ? Hotel general manager Eric DeStefano issued a short statement explaining what occurred. ? The parlor area of the Presidential suite is a general-use area for receptions and small events. The door had been programmed to remain unlocked for an event earlier that day. As soon as the occupant was discovered, he was escorted off the property, DeStefano said. ? Watson told police he has been in Pittsburgh for over a month and sleeps wherever he can locate somewhere comfortable to rest his head, Richard said. ? There arent too many places more comfortable than Watsons chosen location. The 16th-floor suite features a 1,300-square-foot parlor plus three bedrooms, and includes crystal chandeliers, a dining room, grand piano, a full kitchenette, wet bar and sitting room, according to the hotels website. The site doesnt make clear how much the room costs. ? Police took Watson to the Allegheny County Jail, where he remained Wednesday unable to post $15,000 bond. He faces a preliminary hearing Nov. 19 on charges of criminal trespass and theft of services, according to online court records, which didnt list an attorney for him. ? Richard said police dont know how long Watson had been in the suite or how he got in.
