At least one news source stated - "Port Authority police charged the nine crew members with conspiracy, creating a public false alarm and interference with transportation. Everyone involved was released and are expected to face the charges in Essex County court at a later date." I'd say pulling a false fire alarm would create danger. Don't see this as being much different.
