A man from Ocean County has been arrested in an incident in which smoke bombs were thrown and pepper spray was directed toward a crowd leaving an anti-racism concert in January.

Nicholas Mucci, 28, of Toms River, was arrested on Saturday night in the attack at the Trinity Episcopal Parish in Asbury Park.

The incident occurred at a concert organized by a group known as the "One People's Project," which bills itself as an anti-racism, social justice organization, according to authorities.

A news release from Attorney General Matthew Platkin suggests Mucci "allegedly yelled, 'White lives matter, too.'"

He faces multiple charges including making terroristic threats.

Platkin said in a statement that "New Jersey is, and always will be, a state that values the rich diversity of all cultures, religions, and ideals." He added that "this attack targeted people exercising their freedom of expression as they left a house of worship."
