Ivan Kuznetsov and Angelina Nikolau, whose 1 July engagement atop the Empire State Building's spire went viral worldwide, have returned to a Manhattan courtroom to face criminal charges over the 1,300ft climb.
The pair, who documented the ascent online and later described it as a 'celebration of love', are accused of burglary, reckless endangerment and criminal mischief linked to what prosecutors say was unauthorised access to the skyscraper's restricted upper levels.
