One theory mentioned in the mafia book "ICED" mentions that the orders to have Salvatore Triumbari killed came from Calabria because Salvatore and Filippo Vendemini(another member of the camera di controllo killed in 1969) had some Ndrine member killed and a ritual disfigurement occurred. Michele Racco at the behest of the senior Calabrian leaders acted upon their request. Filippo Vendemini had also worked at CYNAR dry Ltd.Back in the late 60's & early 70's there were a series of fires & bombings at the beverage companies and Italian bakeries owned by prominent Ndrangheta leaders. Also others mafia books Mob rule and Mafia assassin make light of this beverage war. Adding this information to the 1982 article that you mention in your post may give credence to a vendetta theory but it is still too early to tell based on the limited information we have for now.

Domenic Triumbari's funeral was today. There is a link to the service details--see

However, there is no obituary / life story that might have shed some light on his family tree.

"Vehicle targeted in shooting outside restaurant in Vaughan: police"

http://globalnews.ca/news/3589272/vehicle-targeted-in-shooting-outside-restaurant-in-vaughan-police/

What I can't figure out just yet if this is an escalation between between the Coluccio's & the Figliomeni's clans as mentioned in earlier articles, a possible restructure of the Ndrangheta clans or if this is a play to remove anybody that had ties to the Rizzuto's. But things are definitely heating up in Ontario.

Restructuring seems the most likely to me. There is also a theory suggested by a recent article about gangs that are alinged with the Rizzuto-Sollecito making their presence known. Do we know whether the target today is linked to Montreal?

As far as I know there is no mention yet to suggest whether it is linked or not.

The Rizzutos are a shadow of its former self, the murder of Rocco Sollicito showed that, how would they make a move in the GTA?

I am not the one that said that.

I should have replied to Sonny, where he was talking about that article. I think media are only speculating just like we do.

I did post the following article earlier.

http://www.torontosun.com/2017/07/03/recent-mob-violence-a-drug-war

I believe that is the article Sonny was referring to. Which can very well be a possibility. By partnering with other groups the Rizzuto clan can mount an attack.

Yeah, that was it. Thanks for posting.



Sollecito could've been killed by anyone. Surely the Rizzuto organization has lost some of their grip, but they are still capable to hit back. They've catched a break when the Scoppa group was busted. I wouldn't rule out that they'll come back out on top.

Sonny it's possible, because the Musitanos and Cun treras are in the thick of things in Ontario. But they are targets it seems.

My cousin was down the street when it went down, he said he heard the shots then knew for sure when about 25 cops flew by.

If something like this happens in Italy, the press would be all over it. The organized crime situation in Canada is crazy but we hear almost nothing.

Sonny_Black:

I don't know of any ties that the restaurant has to any organized-crime group or activity. The chef-owner of this restaurant used to be the chef at Match Bar and Grill, also in Woodbridge (Vaughan)--this is information that anyone could find using Google. Match closed down several years ago even though business was quite good for a good chunk of time. It had several investors, but I'm not sure the chef had ownership back then.

Antimafia, I think it was Ciment who asked for those specifications (bakery something?) but thanks for explaining.

I was responding to your question back on July 11 about whether the restaurant where there was a shooting was linked to Montreal. It's my fault that I took so long to answer your question, but you'll see from one of my posts today in another thread that I also have taken a long time to answer another poster's question.

The article to which I've linked below shows an interactive map of significant organized-crime-related incidents that have plagued Vaughan since July 2013. I realize the title of the thread I created is about shootings since the beginning of this year--and the City of Vaughan is but one part of York Region--but I didn't know want to start another thread.

The chef at the restaurant where the shooting took place is one of the owners. He has co-owned several restaurants with a particular individual, including the restaurant in question. This individual is a Commisso, but that's the only information I have for now--this person may not be related to anyone in the Commisso crime group. Vito Rizzuto's wife's cousin in the GTA knows both of these co-owners (there may be more than two). Stay tuned.

This home may belong to P.Cun-trera.

Based on what the neighbours told the reporter about the approximate age of the couple living there, the residence may belong to Paolo Cun trera.

The DOB for Paolo Cun trera that I have seen in various places is December 16, 1939. He would be 77 now. He would turn 78 later this year.

Paolo is the father of Giuseppe "Little Joe" Cun trera and the uncle of Giuseppe "Big Joe" Cun trera (who is a cousin to Alfonso Caruana).

A just-published article--link is below--reveals that Saverio Serrano was the victim. It also indicates that Saverio and Silvio Serrano are in fact Diego Serrano's sons, which I guessed at but was never able to confirm.

The murdered Antonio Sergi ("Tony Large") was also apparently investigated in Project OPhoenix, which culminated in 2015 in the arrests of Diego Serrano and Giuseppe "Pino" Ursino, among others. (Carmine Verduci would have been arrested had he not been murdered in April 2014.)

If you have the "Instapaper Text" bookmark on your notebook/laptop or desktop PC, you should be able to see and save the article.

Thanks again... I figured they were probably related somehow.

To be honest, I was leaning toward Silvio and Saverio not being Diego's sons. An article from 2000 about one of Diego's bail hearings mentioned his wife (Connie) and two young sons, all of whom were in court. I assumed one of these sons was Francesco, who is 33 or 34 now, and now I realize he very well might have been there that day. However, when I saw Silvio's and Saverio's names on the staff directory of that lighting company the day of the murder back in March,  I then wrongly assumed that neither was one of Diego's two sons because Francesco's name wasn't listed. When I later found a cannabis magazine article that indicated Silvio and Saverio were brothers,  I was fairly sure they were not Diego's sons. Again,  I wasn't able to find the information I needed to confirm or disconfirm.
