MOB KINGPIN MURDERED IN GANG WAR
Liberty City
By Tommy Bayor

Last night new years was cut short when a violent gang war erupted from the streets. A mansion on Shoreside Vale and the surrounding area fell victim to a gang war. Some may remember the gang war that erupted just last year on the Cochrane Dam between the Columbian Cartel and an unknown person(s). No connection has been made to the current flare of gang violence from the Cochrane Dam incident. It seems that the Italian Mafia was targeted in this attack instead of the Cartel. Ricky Borgio, the new mafia leader after the death of Salvatore Leone. The rightful heir to the Leone family was Joey Leone who mysteriously disappeared in the weeks following the death of his father, Salvatore Leone. It's still unknown to who would dare openly challenge the mafia but it is also suspected that the attack could have been from the new business, Spank, Borgio had pushed the Mafia into. Miguel Cortana, a spank dealer who just recently got the 16 counts of drug trafficking dropped and new leader of the Columbian Cartel. Has been noted on visiting Borgio. For those who haven't heard of spank it was the new drug created by the Cartel last year and the suspected reason for the Cochrane incident. Police say, ”In the aftermath of the attack we found an estimated 10 kilos of spank hidden in the mansion. This may have been the target.” 17 Men with known mafia connection were among the dead. So were 24 men that appeared to be from the Cartel but also 14 from an unknown gang were found. Police are looking into Borgio's connections to try to find the unknown gang. Also 29 civilians and 41 police and military deaths were noted. The Death toll from last night gang violence is 125 and rising. Police are still

Tony Diani dropped the newspaper and walked over to the window. The paper was talking about him. He didn't like being talked about. Tony lit a cigarette and looked down onto the streets of Starfish Island and began thinking. Thinking of Vercetti's contacts and allies in Liberty. Thinking of to what extent would his allies want revenge. This question had made him finally take up a deal with the Cartel in Liberty to "take care of' one of Vercetti's top partners, Borgio. He knew Borgio would want revenge for being cut out of the coke business he partnered with Vercetti on. “But he picked a bad time” thought Diani grimly. He thought of the day when finally Vercetti cracked and went paranoid. Paranoid enough to think that one of his most loyal would kill him. Vercetti decided to strike first. He failed and the man he was trying to kill decided it was time for a change of power just as Vercetti had decided 15 years before. Diani put out the cigarette and walked to his office to begin running his empire that was supreme in Vice City and creeping it's way into Liberty. He smiled and cleared the negative thoughts from his head as he lifted a box and dumped out some of the white powder within.
