Brown, a Watertown police officer, was shot in the groin after pursuing a yegg through thick brush. He was carried to a car and then to Waltham Hospital where surgeons removed the bullet near his spine. The attacker, described as a tall foreign-looking man, fled toward Arsenal Street, pursued by Brown and other witnesses. The incident occurred amid a broader day that included a visit by President Taft to Yale involvement and a Yale Club outing.
