Last week in Allston!

Half the population was away for Spring Break, but according to the Allston-Brighton Tab's Community Safety bulletin, that didn't stop residents from having a little too much fun:

- A keg was stolen from the Applebees on Chestnut Hill Ave. on 3/5 "after an employee allegedly saw a man stealing a keg from the restaurant." We already knew they were slow-- but dumb, too?

- On 3/8 a Hispanic man tried to mug a woman in front of 1114 Commonwealth Ave. but failed when the victim "bit his finger." The headline for this one was almost as good as the story: "Victim Takes a Bite Out of Crime."

- That same night, 3/8, a 22-year-old caucasian man got in trouble with the cops after "touching a woman's rear" at the Joshua Tree. We're happy the Allston-Brighton is an equal-opportunity crime reporter-- Hispanics aren't the only ones starting touble!

- On 3/9 another, a Hispanic male tried to mug a woman on Cambridge Street. When the woman screamed he. ran. away. No comment.

- A 48-year old man was arrested on 3/9 for shoving a BC cop. We're just mad it wasn't a loud BC girl.

- And finally, police and Boston EMS brought a man who was "running around naked and carrying a knife" in the halls of his Glencoe St. apartment on 3/14 to St. Elizabeth's for a psychiatric evaluation. Here's the kicker: Officials said the man smelled like alcohol. Nahh, really?
