JUGGLER BUSTED IN B’KLYN PROTEST

A man was arrested in Brooklyn last night for juggling flaming pins in the air during a protest against the federal Patriot Act, police said.

About 200 to 300 people packed Bedford Avenue at North 7th Street in Northside for the protest, which lasted several hours, cops said.

The protesters did not have a permit for their assembly, said cops.

The juggler was arrested at 9:30 p.m. for reckless endangerment and resisting arrest.

Five other people were also arrested for disorderly conduct, authorities said. Their names were not immediately available.
