Cali’s death marks the first time in 34 years that a crime family boss was fatally shot in New York City.
FBI perp walk members of the Gambino crime family, including Frank Cali, in 2008. Cali was killed in front of his home on Wednesday night.
“Upon arrival, officers found a 53-year-old male with multiple gunshot wounds to the torso,” police said to The Post. “EMS also responded to the scene and transported the victim to Staten Island University North where he was pronounced deceased.” A neighbor told the New York Times that he heard a series of gunshots from what he believed to be a single gun.Police told The Post that no arrests have been made and that the investigation is ongoing.
As a leader, Cali was reportedly considerably less flashy than the ebullient Gotti, another Gambino boss, and was described by the New York Post as “a real quiet old-school boss.” Cali’s influence reportedly stemmed from his family connections with the Inzerillo crime family in Palermo, Sicily. “He is everything over there,” the mobster allegedly said, referring to Cali’s stature in New York, according to the Daily News.
