NYPD officers arrested Jones for "unspecified charges" and removed from the protest crowd to be taken to the nearest police precinct where he currently remains.

Rob Jacobson, camera operator on Jones' documentary production crew indicated that a large portion of the protest crowd has moved to the precinct where Jones is being held to ensure his fair treatment and safe release.

Alex Jones, a fringe filmmaker who believes President Bush was responsible for 9/11, was arrested last night by the NYPD.

Jones, 33, of Austin, Tex., was charged with operating a bullhorn without a permit during a protest at Sixth Ave. and 48th St. about 8:30 p.m., cops said. Two other people were issued summonses for disorderly conduct during Jones' arrest, police said.

Cops provided no further details.

But a fellow protester, Lamarr Johnson, 27, of the South Bronx, said the group had seized the opportunity to crash a live TV show featuring Geraldo Rivera at the site. "It was ... guerrilla information warfare," Johnson said.

Jones is closely linked to the 9/11 Truth Movement, which believes the British government carried out the 2005 London subway bombings, among other far-out theories.
