SFist Blotter
![]()
75 Oakland PD officers were called in to assist a party on a Blue and Gold Ferry that got a little out of control on Sunday. The boat made an emergency docking to break up a number of fights that had broken out among the 650+ passengers, and to get medical attention for another passenger that had passed out. UC Berkeley has confirmed that its chapter of the Kappa Alpha Psi frat was involved and is investigating. A previous Kappa Alpha Psi party in 2000 led to a riot on Telegraph Avenue of overflow attendees.
Also on Sunday, a sewer exploded in San Jose. Four manhole covers blew off after someone put something flammable into the system. Beans, beans, the magical fruit.


my friend was on that boat! she said that the kappa guys marooned everyone who wasn't kappa in oakland when the boat docked in oakland as all the kappas sailed back to san francisco. (where the party got started; everyone was parked in SF too) my friend goes to sf state so i assumed it was the sf state chapter of kappa.
