Video of Mafia Assault in Palermo - 11/13/14 08:02 AM
Description taken from vid
"Antonio Vizzi was hit with a mallet for having opened a shop in Palermo without paying the "pizzo", a tax imposed by the local Mafia on commercial activities amounting, in this case, to 3000 euro.
Vizzi refused to pay, despite the threats, resulting in this brutal assault. The other mafia men can be seen preventing passersby from assisting the victim. Another man who's seen beaten was Vizzi's son in law who was left in a coma for two days after and now has a metal plate in his skull.
Vizzi suffered a broken nose and several facial fractures. Eight people were arrested, including Giuseppe Castelluccio, the head of the local Mafia and the instigator of this vile assault."
