Balampanis beaten and pistol whipped. Originally agreed to pay Luccheses $1,500 a week for lost revenue but this stopped after several months.

August/September 2001 - According to FBI agent Joaquin "Jack Falcone" Garcia, things had deteriorated to the point that the two groups met at a gas station near the New Jersey Turnpike. The Gambinos, led by acting boss Arnold Squitieri, had 20 guys, all armed. The Albanians had half a dozen, but were also armed. Squitieri told them, "You took what you took and you ain't takin' no more or there's going to be a problem, you understand." The leader of the Albanains told one of his guys to shoot the gas tanks if the Gambinos started shooting and they would "all go." "The confrontation could have gone either way, but the Gambinos had twenty guys there and the Albanians had only half a dozen. The Albanains had worked with the Gambinos long enough to have respect for La Cosa Nostra, and at the gas station, the Albanians blinked first. Somehow, Greg (DePalma) gold me, the Albanians listened to reason...or at least to Squitieri's threats. They were outnumbered at the gas station, and they must have finally realized the Gambino family was too powerful to be fucked with. Greg told me the Albanians were spanked, and they never evolved into that sixth organized crime family in New York."
