Jesus was arrested - as a Jew
Peter was arrested - as a Jew
Paul was arrested - as a Jew.
Christianity was not a church in its early days, and they weren’t arrested for being ‘Christian’..

If one is to believe the gospel narratives (which I frankly wouldn’t recommend doing, but there are no other sources), Jesus was arrested by Jewish authorities basically as an apostate. I.e. he was not arrested for being a Jew.
