    Six of the migrants charged in connection to the vicious attack on two NYPD officers in Times Square were offered plea deals Tuesday as a Manhattan judge revealed that one of the accused cop-beaters was arrested again while out on bail.

    Yohenry Brito , 24 — who was remanded after his initial arrest — was nabbed last week for petit larceny after an activist Brooklyn priest posted his $15,000 cash bail in February, Judge Laura Ward said in Manhattan Criminal Court on Tuesday.

    “I am furious that Mr. Brito was rearrested and charged with petty larceny while he was out on this case,” Ward fumed as she warned that another slipup would land him behind bars.

    “I am very tempted right now to put you in jail. I am telling you right now, if I learn you are rearrested for anything at all between now and this case being finished, I will order a warrant and I will place bail so high, you will not get out,” she continued.

    “If you jaywalk, if you jump a turnstile, if you do anything at all and I have to issue a warrant, you will not see the light of day until this case is over,” Ward declared.

    She asked if Brito understood, to which he replied “Yes” after the comments were translated for him by an interpreter.

    Brito allegedly tried to steal children’s clothing and “fragrances” from Macy’s Herald Square flagship store on Friday night, according to a criminal complaint.

    He was charged with petit larceny and criminal possession of stolen property — both misdemeanors.

    A Manhattan judge set him free at his Saturday arraignment — despite the DA’s office requesting $10,000 cash bail.

    News of Brito’s rearrest came as he, Ulises Bohorquez, 21, and Andres Gomez-Izquiel,19, were offered plea deals by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office.

    Under the proposed deal, the trio would serve a year in jail in exchange for pleading guilty to second-degree assault.

    Two other migrants charged in the cop attack, Kelvin Servita Arocha , 19, and Wilson Juarez, 21, have been offered a separate deal to serve six months in prison for pleading guilty to obstructing a government administration.

    Prosecutors also offered Yorman Reveron, 24, a bargain that would send him to prison for two years for pleading guilty to second-degree assault, according to the DA’s office.

    The defendants’ attorneys have not yet accepted the plea deals.

    Ward ordered they return to court on June 18, when a trial date will be set if no agreement is reached.

    An offer has not yet been made to 20-year-old Edgarlis Vegas.

    The seven migrants were indicted following the shocking caught-on-camera beatdown of the two officers when they tried to break up a rowdy crowd at the Crossroads of the World on Jan. 27.

    Video showed the mob kicking the cops in the head and body before running away.

    Juarez and Servita-Arocha are alleged members of the notorious Venezuelan street gang Tren de Aragua, and are the subjects of ICE detainers.
