Both are correct, but they mean different things. Public disturbance is a disruption of the peace in public. Acting in a way that is not acceptable in public is a public disturbance.

Public unrest, on the other hand, is a sense of dissatisfaction among members of the public as a whole.

E.g. The law banning the wearing of hats caused considerable public unrest, and some of the most unhappy and daring youth caused a public disturbance by openly wearing hats in public.
