NEW YORK - A "developing threat" to New York City's Jewish community was averted by the arrests of two men at Penn Station - one of whom had Nazi-type insignia on him, New York City Police Department Commissioner Keechant Sewell and sources said Saturday. Christopher Brown, 22, of Riverhead, Long Island, and Matthew Mahrer, 22, of Manhattan, were busted in the transit hub late Friday night, said police sources. Brown, who possessed a "swastika" armband when he was caught, was charged with making terroristic threats, harassment and weapons possession, said the sources.
