An East Deer man cited by Aspinwall police in March for harassment and disorderly conduct will have all citations withdrawn by police after he completes community service.
The decision came at the close of Christopher Brown’s, preliminiary hearing on Thursday, April 17 in District Judge Matthew Rudzki’s Sharpsburg courtroom.
Brown, 60, was cited in connection with two separate incidents in which it appears he targeted supporters of President Donald Trump. In October, Brown allegedly stood in front of a Fourth Street home and yelled profanities and insults and swatted at a Trump flag, directing his verbal attack toward resident Donald Mazreku.
Mazreku told TribLive in March that he stood in disbelief at his window, witnessing Brown’s actions, and motioned with his hand for the man to move along.
Mazreku’s security camera caught the incident. He later shared the video on Facebook.
A second incident, allegedly involving Brown, was reported March 14 along Third Street.
Ring surveillance camera footage showed a man walking onto a home’s porch, opening a screen door and spitting on the front door and walking away.
That home also displayed signs in support of Trump.
Brown’s lawyer, Phil DiLucente, said after Brown completes 10 hours of community service, all citations will be withdrawn.
“He will also be writing a letter of apology,” DiLucente said in an email.
