TL;DR Summary

Nine members of a New York Hasidic Jewish community have been arrested and charged over a secret tunnel that connected to a historic synagogue in Brooklyn. The men are charged with criminal mischief, reckless endangerment, and obstructing governmental administration. The tunnel, which led to the Chabad-Lubavitch headquarters, sparked a brawl when city officials attempted to close it, leading to arrests. The building, a significant Jewish site, was formerly the home of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, and has been closed for inspection as the investigation continues.
