The man shot is Alexander Vinogradsky. It does not say in the article but it is the same guy who owned paramount trucking, the main group going against ndrangheta and hells angels in the tow truck wars recently. I heard some things were getting heated again, perhaps this was the last straw…

Thanks for sharing Moscone. Think it went quiet for a bit after the arrests a few years ago but I saw a few tow truck related incidents in the last year or so.

Guess all the new regulations didn't solve the problem lol

[Moscone65]

No problem, and ya I guess there’s still tension too

Any articles showing ndrangheta connection?

Most of the young guys are all tow truck drivers, gang members, but then you got the commissos and they were mostly charged with municipal corruption

Any update on the young Girolamo charged with murder conspiracy?

I'm not sure about Commisso but the other person charged with him was found not guilty when he went to trial.

Was Vinogradsky ever identified as a Russian mafiya member? I guessed a while back that he might have Russian Jewish ancestry, but an older comment of yours on another board has me thinking that he could have Ukrainian ancestry (Jewish or otherwise).

The reason I ask is I wonder whether his murder arose from conflict within an OC group, such as the Russian mafiya, that is ethnoracially based.

For what it’s worth, you and I know there is a well-established Russian Jewish community in the area where Vinogradsky was killed. It extends north to Steeles and Dufferin, and there are Russian Jewish mafiya members who own establishments north and south of Steeles, between Keele and Dufferin.

I heard he was Ukrainian, but ya thornhill and the areas you mentioned are alot of Jews, mostly Russian. I know there is Russian mafiya presence, but pretty low key, like the triads in Toronto they mostly stick to their area and their demographics. I never heard if he was legitimately a Russian mafia member but he was definitely connected with other Eastern European types as well as black and middle eastern gang members.
