His arrest isn’t related to terrorism. But authorities say he was responsible for several recent nuisance incidents such as tipping over menorahs and repeatedly trespassing at a Jewish market.
Court records show the 35-year-old man faces a charge of criminal mischief. He was being held Sunday morning at the jail in Miami-Dade County pending a bond hearing.
