San Francisco police investigators will travel east this weekend to interview the Yale student who suffered a broken jaw in the alleged assault on members of the Baker's Dozen singing group over New Year's, according to the student's family and his civil attorneys.
The case -- which sparked outrage on both coasts -- began with a dispute at a Richmond District party and ended with members of the singing group being beaten and kicked in the street.
A total of ten members have told police they were assaulted, and at least two suffered serious injury.
The most seriously injured member of the group, Sharyar Aziz Jr., 18, had previously provided a written statement to police. Aziz said he was punched from behind at the party and then attacked on the street. Police said he couldn't identify his alleged attacker.
Aziz suffered a broken jaw in two places and returned to his home in New York shortly after the incident for treatment.

Connecticut ping!
Please Freepmail me if you want on or off my infrequent Connecticut ping list.
Why fly and waste tax payer money I heard that the people that assaulted these men were identified. I am sure if this was a gay lesbian transgendal group we would be seeing candle light vigils and a call for peace against violence.
I thought the Yalies offered to stay a little longer in SF for investigative interviews and the cops passed on it. I could be wrong, but this is an expensive game of catch-up.
The criminals appear to be too well connected for a prosecution to ever occur. This just looks like window dressing after some bad publicity.
Oh, they'll serve up some plebian striver to take the fall. America the pitiful.
Thay, are you thithies OK?
And the victims are too well connected to let this be swept under the rug. Get your popcorn, this is going to get interesting.
Blue bloods gone wild.
Good point.
