The son of an alleged New York City mobster who was shot to death at a McDonald's drive-thru in the Bronx in October is accused of calling a hit on his own dad.
Sylvester Zottola, 71, an alleged Bonanno crime family associate, was found inside his vehicle riddled with gunshots just before 5 p.m. Thursday, according to police. His car was boxed in when a gunman opened fire, sources told The New York Post in the fall. He had reportedly just ordered a coffee when he was shot.
The murder came just months after his son survived an apparent hit. His son Salvatore Zottola survived a shooting in July 2018, as pictured in the image above.
Now, another one of Sylvester Zottolas sons is accused of being one of the men behind the fatal hit on his dad and one on his own brother.
Anthony Zottola Sr., 41, is among four people arrested last week on murder-for-hire charges in connection with both plots,(snip)
The affidavit calls last year's McDonald's drive-through shooting " the culminating event in a series of violent episodes in which he and his older son[...]were targeted over the course of a nearly year-long period."
It claims that Anthony hired Shelton, an alleged Bloods gang member, to kill both his brother and dad. "Shelton, in turn, enlisted, the help of other Bloods gang members, including Cummings, Lopez, Peterson, and Snipe to fulfill the contract."
The complaint shows Anthony and Shelton allegedly exchanging coded text messages between each other discussing hits under the guise of talking about a movie set.(snip)
I saw the actor today he looks ready to finish the scene, Anthony messaged Shelton two days before the attack, referring to his dad as an actor, according to the complaint.Hopefully everyone is ready tomorrow to wrap it up.

Some problems just solve themselves.
I bet someone is going to be grounded for a month
Kinda like that scene in The Godfather where Sonny gets boxed in at the toll booth and riddled with bullets.
Hell. I love quarter pounders. McDs fries are the best. Not ashamed to say so.
Shoulda ordered the Happy Meal.
Live it.
Leave the gun, take the happy meal
Agreed. Coffee cheap and generally good.
I like Sonic’s burgers a lot better.
Apparently, you can order a hit on someone at the drive-thru.
Reputed Mob Boss' Own Son Accused Of Ordering Hit On Him At McDonald's Drive-Thru
I have to admit, I don't recall seeing that on the value menu.
There are like 1 or 2 sonic locations in 50 square miles. None around here.
You’d think it would be in the Mafia boss handbook “Avoid toll booths and drive-throughs. And revolving doors.”
