Camorra 'eminence grise' gunned down in Naples
Hit on mediator could signal fresh turf war say cops

(ANSA) - NAPLES, MAR 16 - A 77-year-old Camorra member gunned down in an ambush in Naples Monday night was considered an "eminence grise" in the Neapolitan Mob, police said Tuesday.
Antonio Volpe, hit by a hail of bullets by hitmen on a scooter in the Fuorigrotta quarter, was a senior advisor to the Baratto-Bianco-Volpe clans, police said.
Volpe was the brother-in-law of Antonio Bianco, believed to be a top lieutenant of the two brothers who run the Baratto family.
The hit on Volpe could be part of a fresh turf war, police said.
He had been a mediator in many disputes, they said.
Volpe was injured in another attempt on his life in 2005.
