Scene of Crime.
New York -- A rope with a sign stating 'Crime Scene, Search Area, Stop' is stretched across the intersection of Hester and Mulberry Streets in the Little Italy section of lower Manhattan, blocking off Umberto's Clam House, where reputed mobster Joseph 'Crazy Joe' Gallo was slain early April 7, while celebrating his 43rd birthday with family members and friends. Officials said his slaying might be the first salvo in a new gangland war. Gallo was the third man killed in gangster style in as many days. (1972)

The "Ubazze" needed a scungilli fix - oopsie.
Da mob strikes again.
Always dangerous at meal time in New York. If I was those coots I'd never eat in cafes.
To paraphrase Stanley Kowalski, "That shut him up like a clam!"
King of the streets, child of clay. Why did they have to come and blow you away?
And to think that I saw it on Mulberry Street.
