Topless woman walks through the Bowery
A blond mystery woman strolled the Bowery and other Manhattan streets free of the burden of bra or shirt, taking advantage of New York's leniency toward such exposure.
The woman wore nothing more than a modest, knee-length black skirt, flip flops, sunglasses and a brown purse Monday while ogling pedestrians snapped pictures.
...She was stopped by police, but cops said she wasn't issued a summons because it is not illegal for a woman to expose her chest. The woman was later spotted near Central Park.
