Evans, who commands the Allston-Brighton district, has a history of cracking down on underage drinking and touts a “zero-tolerance” policy for area schools.

“Based on what I’ve seen at other schools and their tailgates, this was clearly out of control,” Evans said.
Associate Dean of the College Judith H. Kidd declined to comment.
