Months before he was killed, Frantz Louis was seen meeting with two Hells Angels and other organized crime figures at a park in Laval.

Ciment,

Sorry for my delay in welcoming you back -- an oversight on my part. Please accept my apologies.

I'm going to cross-post your link to the "Montreal Haitian gangs" thread, as I also want to include there the La Presse article just recently published.

Antimafia,

No problem, thanks happy to hear from you also. I always appreciated your contribution and views from your posts.

^^^^
You're very welcome, Ciment.

After you left, I came to appreciate even more your contributions and viewpoints, as my thinking about this stuff started evolving several years ago and continues to evolve -- and that largely comes from entertaining other people's opinions, including those of one's fellow posters on an organized-crime forum.

Olivier Primeau still targeted by a Molotov cocktail: the arrested suspect is linked to one of the most violent street gangs in Montreal


Jean-Richard Émile, alias "ti-doigt", is accused of having started an arson attack with danger to human life at the Slice Gang pizzeria. This is also the second time in as many days that the establishment has been targeted by a Molotov cocktail. The gang with which he is affiliated, Zone 43, is established in Montreal North and refers to the 43 bus which serves this sector of the island. It is reputed to be one of the most violent in Montreal. The group of red allegiance is notably at the origin of the murder of Jean Romel Victor, who died in atrocious circumstances at the prison of Rivière-des-Prairies in September 2013.

The files of the two attacks on the pizzeria were later transferred to the SQ, it is added. The Major Crimes Investigation Division will continue the investigation.Certain elements collected during the investigation lead us to believe that there could be links with organized crime,” reports the SQ.

Important Mafia players repeatedly targeted


Major Mafia players have been repeatedly targeted by mischief, arson or gunfire in the past month in Montreal and Laval, an unequivocal expression of a new wave of tension within organized crime. traditional Italian.
WHAT THERE IS TO KNOW
Two vehicles were burned in the entrance of a residence located very close to that of Francesco Del Balso, formerly of the Rizzuto clan.
At least eight arson attacks, attempted arson attacks and shooting episodes in just a month have been directed against two high-ranking mob bosses, Marco Pizzi and Davide Barberio.
The number of arson attacks would be on the rise in Montreal since the beginning of the year compared to last year.

La Presse learned that the most recent event would have taken place on the night of Wednesday to Thursday, in Laval, in the street where Francesco Del Balso lives, a former lieutenant of the Rizzuto clan sentenced to 15 years for gangsterism and importing cocaine into the wake of the major anti-Mafia operation Colisée by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police carried out in 2006.

Two vehicles were burned in the entrance of a residence located very close to that of the mafia and the authorities do not exclude that the arsonists were in the wrong house.

“Around 4:05 a.m., a call was made to 911 for two luxury vehicles on fire in a house entrance. Our crime scene technicians went to the scene to investigate, ”described to La Presse the spokesperson for the Service de police de la Ville de Laval (SPL), Érika Landry, who did not want to confirm the incident. hypothesis that Del Balso could be the one who was targeted.

Del Balso is suspected of being involved in the attempted murder of Leonardo Rizzuto, youngest son of former godfather Vito Rizzuto, which occurred on March 15 on Highway 440, near Highway 13, in Laval.

He is also the subject of a major drug investigation led by the National Organized Crime Squad (ENRCO), headed by the Sûreté du Québec.

Eight events in one month
Moreover, according to our information and a compilation made by La Presse , at least eight arson attacks, attempted arson attacks and episodes of shootings that occurred in barely a month, between the end of March and the end of April, were obviously directed against the clan leader Marco Pizzi, present in Rivière-des-Prairies and Laval, and the one whom the police consider to be the street boss of the mafia, Davide Barberio.


In Montreal, fires reportedly targeted businesses or vehicles belonging to them, or belonging to relatives, particularly in the boroughs of Rivière-des-Prairies-Pointe-aux-Trembles and Montreal-Nord.

Shots were also fired at a massage parlor on Rue De Lorimier in late March.

In Laval, three suspects went to the property of a relative of Marco Pizzi on Lévesque Boulevard, on the night of Saturday to Sunday last.

They were surprised by one of the occupants of the place and an altercation ensued.

“The suspects then set fire to one of the vehicles parked in the entrance to the residence and stole the other vehicle. But as they fled, two of the suspects in one of the vehicles crashed into a house. They were arrested, ”explained to La Presse Stéphanie Beshara, also spokesperson for the SPL.

The two suspects, Kervens Raphaël and Raphaël Massé-Beauvais, both 20, have been charged with arson, possession of a firearm and absconding.

It appears that individuals linked to the Mafia have hired guards to guard their property.

According to our information, the number of arson attacks has increased significantly in Montreal since the beginning of the year compared to last year.

About fifteen of them seem linked to the mafia, according to our information.

Family of murder victim tied to organized crime paints different portrait in Montreal court

So is this another uprising of one group challenging another for supremacy in Montreal? Or is this revenge for the attempted hit on Rizzuto? What side of the aisle are Barberio and Pizzi on??

hey mike 68.

on the thread currently going on about attempt on leonardo rizzuto i had posted a few theories.

Mike....According to the reporters they have them both on Rizzuto side.

Conflicts between organized crime groups, extortion attempts, disputes between vehicle theft rings and debts are setting Montreal ablaze at the start of the year.

H.O.L.L.Y.
ShiT….

If Canada does away with their mandatory 25 years before eligible for parole law.
The only deterrent presently I place, which I believe only the shooter is the one charged with 1st degree,
Not like RiCO laws where the boss is on the hook for murder if he ordered it.

If so away with that and guys will get out after 10 years give or take
That would be a nail in the coffin for the Govt to fight OC with any sort of success.

The victim is the spouse of one of Moreno Gallo's sons

The victim is the spouse of one of Moreno Gallo's sons

The woman shot dead while driving, in the middle of rush hour on Tuesday afternoon, in the Côte-des-Neiges sector, is the spouse of one of the sons of the late Calabrian mafioso Moreno Gallo, La Presse learned.

The victim, Claudia Iacono, was driving her car when she was shot before hitting a building on Jean-Talon Street, near Savane Street, at about 4:30 p.m.

Called to the scene, the police then found that the woman had been hit by at least one firearm projectile.

According to our information, the victim was the spouse of Anthony Gallo, son of Moreno Gallo.

It seems, according to our information, that the victim was followed by the killer or killers. Witnesses reportedly saw a suspect flee on foot.

Major Crimes investigators from the City of Montreal Police Service will have to determine whether the victim was the one targeted.

If this is the case, it is very rare for the wife of an individual related to organized crime to be the victim of murder.

Montreal: a woman shot dead while driving

They have gone out of control. Now any organized crime figure's wife is a shooting target. What's next children.

A new low sad but the stakes are high, it's a billion dollar industry.

I read Moreno Gallo's wife was abducted in 2019.
