Man who broke into Diddy mansion smoked cigars and slept in bed

A man who broke into Sean 'Diddy' Combs' New York State mansion told a court he drank the rapper's spirits, smoked his cigars and slept in his bed.

Quamine Taylor was sentenced today in Suffolk County court to time served after being unable to post US$2,000 (€1,603) bail following his April arrest, the New York Post reported.

Taylor was also ordered to stay away from Combs' homes.

The man was arrested at the sprawling home on April 1 after spending nearly 24 hours there. He faced trespassing and petit larceny charges.

He had said he had hoped to stay at the house for several days.

Taylor had previously been arrested at the home in June 2001.
