Is Kevin Rochebrun Killed Leonardo Rizzuto?
A resident of Mascouche, Kevin Rochenbrun, 32, and Steve Emmanuel Barthelemy, 34, of Riviere-des-Prairies, were arrested at the end of April and picked up again on Monday. They were charged with multiple counts, including attempted murder and possession of prohibited firearms. They will be presented in court on Wednesday. Rizzutto, 53, was hit in the leg on March 15 around 4:30 pm, while driving a black Mercedes on Highway 440 Westbound in Laval, and the occupant of a black Porsche Macan allegedly fired several shots at the victim’s car.
Rizzutto’s car was filled with bullets in March, but he managed to exit the highway and park at a Laval funeral home before being transported to the hospital in stable condition. The shooting was one of three in the Greater Montreal Area in recent months involving people connected to the Sicilian organized crime world in the area. Claudia Lacono, 39 was shot and killed in her car in the parking lot of the salon she owned in April. She was the daughter-in-law of Mafia associate Moreno Gallo, who himself was killed in Mexico in 2013. Police have not confirmed that the killing was mob related when an arrest was made in connection with the homicide.
Del Balso was suspected of being behind the drive-by shooting of the young Rizzuto. The provincial organized crime-fighting squad includes SQ officers in addition to investigators from the Montreal and Laval (SPL) police forces, Ontario Provincial Police (OPP), federal RCMP officers, and agents from the Canadian Border Services Agency. Antonio Nicaso, the author of more than 40 books on organized crime, said Del Balso once managed gambling for the Rizzuto crime family. Nicaso said Del Balso specialized in illegal betting activities, but his efforts to carve out his own space in the field of gambling and extortion led to a clash with the Rizzuto clan.
