Middlesex County Prosecutor Andrew C. Carey and Anthony A. Caputo, director of the New Brunswick Police Department, announced that four Rutgers University students and two former students were charged today with assaulting a group of individuals, including one student whose jaw was broken during the unprovoked attack.
Five were current Rutgers football players.
In a separate case, one of those former students and four others were charged with participating in home invasions in which victims, who also were members of the student body, were targeted for their drugs and cash.
