My brother got mugged last night...

I havent been mugged, but my nephew has.

Shortly after I returned from Newark to visit my brother after the birth of his daughter, he called to tell me that my nephew was walking hom late one night from his friends house, came home a bloodied mess and passed out on the floor.

It seems these cats jumped him in the park. My nephew tried to walk away and was attacked. When they realized he didnt have any money, thats when one of them grabbed for a brick and at that point my family's "fight" gene kicked in and he went into overload. My somewhat scrawny nephew managed to fight off 4 guys and escape alive but my brother (who is a firefighter) was NOTICEABLY pissed off and from that point on it was a big mess. When he called me I could tell he was in a pretty big rage and was trying to calm down. At any rate, considering the danger he was in my neph got off fairly well - just really banged, bruised, and scared by the incident.

They just moved to that neighborhood but my bro knows how to manuever through there enough to know how to deal with it. He's looking to get away from there ASAP though. Just a matter of time once the baby gets a bit older...

Jam it back in, in the dark.
