Two crimes committed in broad daylight, just 20 meters away, a month apart. December 17, 2012, Giuseppe Fetta was suffering from several gun shots near his car parked on the boulevard Saint-Laurent Street between Fleury and Sauriol. He survived the shooting. On November 15, gunmen had mistaken Tony Gensale, who died after being shot three times in the chest, leaving a taekwondo school, almost the same place.
Tony Gensale was shot by mistake, on November 15, Boulevard Saint-Laurent. His killers have taken to the mafia Giuseppe Fetta, riddled with bullets a month later, 20 meters from where Gensale took his last breath.
