Angelo Bruno Philadelphia Organized Crime Boss

Angelo Bruno was a Mafia don in Philadelphia and southern New Jersey until he was shot dead as he arrived home one evening from an Italian restaurant. It was when competitors encroached on Angelo's dominance in the more lucrative Atlantic City rackets that he found trouble. Also Bruno had divulged information about the syndicate to one of many government committees who investigated organized crime. Whatever the motive Angelo's death was sudden and extremely violent. A hitman approached him just as he got home and shot him in the back of the head with buckshot.
