Tony DelSanter (Cleveland Capo) ran the Trumbull County (Warren/Niles, OH) rackets until his death in the late 1970's along with Charlie Imburgia (Pittsburgh Consigliere) and profits were split, 50% going to Cleveland and 50% going to Pittsburgh. Charlie and Tony had a very good relationship. In Mahoning County (Greater Youngstown), The Carabbia Brothers, Ronnie, Charlie & Orlie) had all of Struthers, OH as well as the eastern part of the county in towns like Lowellville, Columbiana, and parts of the city. The Pittsburgh Faaction had the rest of Mahoning County, Western PA and most of the city of Youngstown. Dominic Mallamo and Paul Romeo were the dominant force in Youngstown for decades but by 1981-1982 all the power was passed to Jimmy Prato (Mallamo's nephew) and Joey Naples. The Pittsburgh-Cleveland War lasted from 1976-1982 and Pittsburgh assumed total control over all rackets since the upper echelon of Cleveland were all being indicted for narcotics as well as the Danny Greene car bombing.


How many people went down for the Danny Greene Bombing/ War with him he killed a few of there people too didn't he?
