American media report that 53-year-old was killed in front of the house door in the luxury neighborhood of Todd Hill about 9:20 p.m., while the wife and children were in the apartment. The killer is taught he's gone in a blue truck.
Cali is the first mafia boss to be killed in New York since 1985, when John Gottti ordered the execution of the then boss of the Gambino family, Paul Castellano.
FBI investigators are investigating whether the murder was approved by the city's five mafia families commission or was the act of one man.
Born in Sicily, Cal became the boss of the Gambino family in 2015 and was viewed as a “Padrino” of the old school, since it was rarely seen in public and was not very visible. He introduced new “” from Italy to family and focused on the heroin market.
