03/04: Wanted: Four White Guys (Some Irish)
Posted by: Patrick
As a white person named Patrick O'Keefe (i.e. some of my ancestors came into this country from Ireland through Worcester, MA), I am appalled at this story.
According to the victim's girlfriend, the couple went into Cantab Lounge in Cambridge and a "large group" of people came up to her boyfriend and started arguing with him because he was wearing a Yankees hat. The couple left the establishment, but they were followed and, alledgely, threw the Yankee fan to the group and kicked him. He was taken to the hospital.
On a serious note, we wish him a speedy recovery.
On a lighter note, Travis G. left a noteworth comment on Steve's entry about this: "Were the bullies wearing catcher's masks?"
A group of men — some with Irish accents — beat up a 23-year-old Cambridge man and sent him to the hospital after they spotted him sporting a Yankees baseball cap. ...
The attackers are described as four white men. One of the men was last seen wearing a blue and white striped shirt.
