Police make arresting argument with Allston/Brighton college students

Boston Police report that beefed up patrols in Allston/Brighton have helped lead to the following stats since students returned last month: 27 students arrested, 11 criminal complaints issued and 138 tickets for violations of city ordinances have been handed out. Police add they have their legal eyes on local landlords:

Landlords and homeowners should be aware that criminal charges may be filed and pursued against them as a result of such an investigation if a violation is discovered.

That might be news to some of the Brighton residents interviewed by the Herald, who say they haven't seen much improvement since passage of, in the Herald's understated words, "a much-ballyhooed Hub ordinance meant to curb wild college booze bashes and overcrowding in student apartments."
