I don't condone scrapping on the street but I did grow up in a town where it was, unfortunately, a regular occurrence. In my younger life I spent a bunch of time working in bars.
So I will say, if a dude was kicked out of the bar for harassing you and your Mom and sticks around to continue to harass you....and (assumption here) approaches you while your Mom is beside you (another assumption), you have to fail safe. You either run if you have time and your mom also can run, or, if no time and space, you fight to defend yourself and your mom. What if he has a weapon? You don't know at that time.
A jaw obviously be be broken with one punch, happens all the time...there is also a strong chance damage happened after he went out and hit the ground. It is a very unfortunate incident but if dumb dumb grabbed a cab when he got tossed, it doesn't happen.
Also, doormen should have made sure he was gone or called the campus cops. A miss there IMO.
