New York man convicted in hired murder of Mafia associate dad at McDonald’s drive-thru to take over empire
Fox News
Anthony Zottola was found guilty of the hired New York City murder of his father Sylvester "Sally Daz" Zottola at a McDonald's drive-thru, as well as the botched killing of his brother.
Prosecutors say he employed a gang of hitmen to kill the elder Zottola, who allegedly had mob ties to the Bonanno crime family. But month after month, the elder Zottola survived attempts on his life — a man assaulted him in front of his Bronx home, and someone fired at his vehicle along the Throgs Neck Expressway.
