One story that comes to mind is that Gambino soldier who got beaten to death by a neighbor. And Gotti sent Gravano along with some guy from Jersey for retribution

Apart from wise guys taking a beating from civilians, how about each other? Bobby Boriello famously beat Preston up and the Gambino's wrongly assumed his death was at the hands of Preston.



That was Franscesco Oliviero who murdered a member of the Cherry Hill Gambinos. I don't think they were civilians. The Oliviero family were drug dealers.
