In fact, the only other long-range shooting death in recent memory shares some striking similarities with the murder of Clinton Yow Foo, leading some to suspect a single hit man might be behind both killings.
According to police reports, on Nov. 10, 2010, Nicolo Rizzuto, the 86-year-old godfather of Montreal’s Rizzuto crime family, was shot through a window by at least one shooter who was waiting in the woods behind the family home.
Toronto police have hinted the rifle used to shoot Yow Foo is connected to Montreal and have confirmed it fires a .300 calibre bullet, the same calibre that was used to kill Rizzuto. Police have also suggested Yow Foo had links to organized crime, but have so far refused to explain how.
