I thought they just walked up to him, but it was a sniper.
On June 5, 2023, Del Balso was murdered inside his car in the parking lot of the Monster gym.[28] Del Balso had been meeting two Hells Angel leaders at the gym.[27] The murder weapon was a long rifle, which is an unusual weapon as most gangland murders in Montreal are done using handguns.[27] The marksman fired at a distance of 90 meters.[27] A Montreal policeman stated: "The way in which Francesco Del Balso was killed is unusual, to say the least. With this way of doing things, we are at another level. The sponsor wanted to be sure that the crime would be committed efficiently and without any mistakes. Maybe he put a lot of money into it. If so, the question to ask is: who can afford this?"
Del Balso wasn't killed in his car. He was killed outside after exiting the GYM. Your thinking of another incident where they tried to kill him while he was driving his car but managed to escape.

"After an interview that lasted "a good while," according to the gym employee, Francesco Del Balso headed into the parking lot. As he was walking toward his vehicle, he saw the shooter coming toward him. It was at that moment that he reportedly turned around and tried to take refuge inside the gym. But the shooter still had time to aim at him. The scene was partially filmed by the establishment's security cameras."
