Yeah, sounds like he was trying to get under his SUV to elude gunfire. Twelve shots fired

What if it was some drunk that plowed into his car and Cali went out there, confronted him, and the guy shot him? The amount of shots would not indicate as such but it's not completely out of the question.

Seems like a classical mob hit then.

The shooting was captured on video. Shooter described as a male 25-40 years old.

It's a new morning in America... fresh, vital. The old cynicism is gone. We have faith in our leaders. We're optimistic as to what becomes of it all. It really boils down to our ability to accept. We don't need pessimism. There are no limits.

The way the guy in the press conference described it was like Cali was having a conversation with the individual like they knew each other. If it was just some random dude who smashed into his vehicle wouldn't they have described it more as a confrontation? And a random guy carrying a 9mm in that neighbourhood?

12 shots with a 9mm doesn't sound like a professional job.

Also a pickup truck with likely damage. I bet there is an update sooner than later.

It's strange that a guy that knew him would set him up by hitting his vehicle, though. Have they actually specified whether or not the truck hit his car before or after the shooting? "Before" is the impression I've gotten so far.

Also, it seems strange that someone who intended on killing him would hold a conversation with him before deciding to kill him. That wouldn't seem as strange in a club or some other private facility but right out in the open, in front of his house no less? Seems like professional hitters would done it a little more quickly.

Agree. Anything possible, but seems highly unlikely a drunk guy randomly hits his car, then the conversation escalates from talking to 12 shots in a minutes time.

Definitely, it's just a crazy situation all around.

Would be absolutely crazy if the biggest mob hit of the last 30 years was just a case of road rage.

It's very confusing. The guy in the press conference said a theory is that the shooter in the pick up truck hit Cali's vehicle to lure him out. Other news articles reported that Cali had a phone call or a text before he went out of the house.

Cali comes out of his house after the truck reverses into his SUV, they have a conversation,bafter a minute the guy starts shouting, 12 shots fired and 6 hit the mark, he wasn’t run over, all captured on CCTV.

I hope he was wearing a disguise otherwise this will get wrapped up pretty quickly
