*** A patron at a Brownsville bodega was arrested after he threatened to slash the face of a counterman who forgot to toast his sandwich bread, authorities charged.

Police say Pius Oculi, 38, initially confronted Abdalah Salah Wednesday afternoon inside 939 Utica Ave. and became enraged, cursed, threw the food on the floor and pulled the knife when the untoasted lunch was served and it cost 50 cents more than he’d thought it would.

The next day, Oculi returned to buy another sandwich and a cigar but Sala asked him to leave. The rebuff prompted another knife threat and rant that ended with cops being called. The action was captured on video.

Oculi was charged with menacing, harassment and weapons possession.
