“Needless to say, with the potential organized crime angle to this story, it gets the utmost importance to the NYPD and detective bureau,” Shea said. “I think it’s a little preliminary with motive.”“Certainly, we're exploring what his prior life or current life has connections to the incident last night,” he said. “It also could have nothing to do with it. We're at a very preliminary stage. We are ruling nothing out at this part.
“He exits his house,” Shea said of Cali. “There is a conversation with an individual in front of that residence. The individual pulls a weapon and shots were fired.” Emergency personnel stand near the murder scene of Gambino crime boss Frank Cali on Staten Island on Wednesday.“Somebody thought he was run over, but he was probably trying to elude gunfire by getting under a car,” he said, referring to a panicked 911 call that was made by somebody inside the Cali house.
