More break-ins were reported at an abandoned former IBM campus in Somers.

State police say eight people were arrested on Monday.

All were charged with criminal trespass.

Since February, 42 arrests have been made for trespassing there.

Officials say it is tied to a social media trend.

Troopers warn the site is dangerous and off limits.

Note: Police say the property has become a destination for so-called “urbex” — or urban exploration — where people visit and film abandoned locations for platforms like TikTok and YouTube.
