Son of Bonanno crime family associate shot near his Bronx home
2018-07-13
[NY Post] The son of a reputed Bonanno crime family associate was critically wounded in an attempted hit steps away from his lavish Bronx compound Wednesday morning, law enforcement sources told The Post.

Salvatore Zottola was shot three times ‐ including a graze wound to the head ‐ when someone who pulled up in a dark-colored Nissan sedan opened fire as he was walking to his car on Tierney Place near Longstreet Avenue in the Locust Point section of the borough at around 6:40 a.m., sources said.

Zottola, 41, was rushed to Jacobi Medical Center in critical, but stable condition, officials said.

The shooting suspect, described as an adult man, was spotted driving away from the crime scene, sources said.

Police recovered four shell casings at the scene where a pool of blood could be seen in the street a few feet away from the curb.

#7  The times have sadly changed. Getting whacked from a Nissan? No Caddies, Lincolns in the crew? C'mom, Paisan, make America great again.

#3  Y'know, with the amount of random crime in this country, statistically speaking, sooner or later a random mugging is going to claim the life of Joseph Bonanno's uncle's college roomate's cousin's ex-girlfriend's bruddah-in-law...
