A Brooklyn judge wants the daredevil Russian tourist who climbed to the top of the Brooklyn Bridge on Sunday to work off his crime – by spiffing up the span!
“Go clean the bridge,” judge ShawnDya Simpson said in court Friday as she told lawyers that Yaroslav Kolchin, 24, should get community service instead of jail time.
“If he likes the the bridge, let him clean the bridge.”
Kolchin turned down a plea deal that would have put him behind bars for 90 days and hasn’t yet accepted a deal. He’s free on $5,000 bail.
