From the NY Post today, these public hits don't happen to often anymore.

A Bonanno crime family associate was critically wounded in an attempted hit steps away from his lavish Bronx home Wednesday morning, law enforcement sources told The Post.

Salvatore “Sally Daz” Zottola was shot multiple times — including once in the head and three times in the torso — when someone inside a dark Nissan sedan opened fire as he was walking to his car on Tierney Place near Longstreet Avenue in the Locust Point section of the borough around 6:40 a.m., sources said.

Zottola, 41, was rushed to Jacobi Medical Center in critical but stable condition, officials said.

The shooting suspect, described as an adult male, was spotted driving away from the crime scene, sources said.

Police recovered four shell casings at the scene.

There were no immediate arrests.

Neighbors on Tierney Place were not shocked by the gun violence.

“It’s not a surprise. Look at what he does for a living,” one woman said. “I can’t say any more. It’s not worth my life. It’s not worth my daughter’s life.”

Bonanno crime family boss Vincent “Vinny Gorgeous” Basciano, now serving a life sentence, once set up his mistress, Debra Kalb, in a Bronx home owned by Zottola, according to published reports.

Sorry about that.

It pretty much says the same thing as the first article posted but with the added notes that the head shot was just a graze wound and that his 71 year old father Sylvester was arrested on June 12th for shooting at a guy who had pulled a gun on him outside his bronx home. Says it is unclear if the 2 shootings are related.

Look at the pic of him and basciano which was at at least 15 years ago which would make Zottola only 26 in that pic. He has to be older than 41.

I had the same observation. I was thinking that it wasn't actually Zottola in the picture. The guy in the pic looks in his early 40's when the picture was taken like you said at least 15 years ago.

There is really a ton of violence in tje Bronx/Harlem (relatively) over the padt few years. Dating from Basciano, the meldish hit, the enzo hit in harlem, the raos shooting, the londonio shootout with state troopers, cirillis son disapearance, and now this.

For just a few tiny small, largely vanishing neigjborhoods.

And for everyone that said the Bonannos wre non-factors in the Bronx, they sure do make a lot of noise.

Except for the fact that there is plenty of evidence that Vinny Gorgeous is not the boss - case in point, Mikey Mancuso.
And let’s say, for the sake of argument, he is boss. I assume he’s using carrier pigeons? Smoke signals? The guy has only just been removed from America’s most maximum security prison, the place where they keep terrorists and deranged serial killers. Any phone calls he has are 100% monitored and his visitations are not only monitored, but they were limited to something like once a month according to a Daily News article.

Bloods and other street gangs in the area - African American and Hispanic alike - have carried out Mob-connected hits before. It's not unthinkable, but it's not certain either.

Court documents as well as Dom Cicale's testimony have confirmed that Basciano wanted a panel with Mancuso, CIcale and Rabito when he went away, but Mikey Nose seized the family and taped jailhouse chats between Massino and Basciano illustrate how angry Basciano was at this.

Seems he got out of a car, shot at him, then jumped back in and sped away. Must've just been waiting for him to leave his place in the morning.

Looks like he's keeping his mouth shut. Has cameras all over front of his house and won't let the fbi look at footage. And yeah, father in the past year has been clubbed over the head, a gun pulled on him and stabbed in the neck. Something is brewing.

Those are the mini-apartment buildings with multiple (probably 8 to 10) units in each structure. All the rage now, especially in Queens. Those 4 doors on the front each lead to separate units. plus the basement dwellings, the SRO's, subdivided, etc.

The recent case in Queens from a year or so ago i think. They was going hit this guy but too crowded in the streets. It's somewhere on here posted.

Looks like he owned the whole left building, or a at least a good chunk of it. You can see a "Z" at the top the building and in both driveways. I think the daily news article yesterday said they owned like three or four homes on the end of the block.
