-Lanni, a captain and part of the Gambino Sicilian faction, was arrested for an assault against a husband & wife occurring over Labor Day weekend in Toms River, NJ. The couple, who are restaurant owners, asked Lanni to leave their restaurant for drunk and disorderly conduct. Lanni allegedly waited for the owners outside of their restaurant and, after closing and as they were leaving, attacked both (also puncturing their car tires with a knife). There was at least one unidentified / unknown 'accomplice' for the beatings.

--After the arrest, Lanni's lawyers successfully argued that he should be released without bail. The judge in the case did order him to avoid the restaurant and its owners & he is scheduled for a court date next month.

--Per GL News, Lanni is very close with Gambino consigliere Lorenzo Mannino and was also close with the late Frank Cali, having taken over his rackets after his death. Capeci speculates that Lanni's actions will not be well received by Mannino (or boss Dom Cefalu) who stress the importance of being low key gangsters.
