Boston Blotter: Tuxedo Mob Victim Dies

Blotter-Body-Outline.jpg -- The victim of a savage beating that was the alleged work of a group of well dressed men succumbed to his injuries today. The man was found beaten outside of Club 33, in the Back Bay, where an alleged verbal altercation turned into an alleged beating at the hands of 12 men, 9 of whom were wearing matching red tuxedos because they had just been to a funeral. The victim, Jose Alicea, was 22 when he died. The 12 suspects were arraigned today on charges of aggravated assault and battery and held on bail ranging from $100,000 to $200,000.
