Italian authorities say another wanted man, Cosimo Triumbari, 56, fled Siderno in 1988, after surviving a shotgun blast to his arm from a local mafioso. The Italians say they have issued warrants against him for extortion, loansharking, money laundering and Mafia conspiracy.

Triumbari deferred questions to his son, saying his English wasn't strong.

Told of the charges, Tony Triumbari said his father isn't hiding anywhere, and can be found daily behind the counter of his family restaurant in an industrial section of Woodbridge.

"I think you've got the wrong information, my friend," Tony Triumbari said, adding that it's odd to think of his father as a fugitive since he hasn't changed his name or gone into hiding.

"He wouldn't be here," Tony Triumbari said, gesturing to his father serving customers in Lanterna Ristorante on Edgeley Blvd. in Concord, which specializes in wood-oven pizza.

Tony Triumbari said his father hasn't been in Italy for 18 years.

Like Cosimo Triumbari, none of the alleged fugitives have tried to conceal their identities.
