According to NYDailyNews.com, “A reputed mob associate stabbed a prominent Brooklyn pizzeria owner Friday after a wild argument in a grocery store spilled out onto the street, sources said.”
“Mark Iacono, 43, owner of the famed pizzeria Lucali, began to argue with longtime pal Benny Geritano, 38, inside Joe’s Superette on Smith St. in Carroll Gardens, at about 2:30 p.m., sources said. The dispute continued on the sidewalk when Geritano – an ex-con who beat a murder rap for a 1991 Bensonhurst slay – whipped out a blade and started slashing Iacono. ‘He was violently stabbing the other guy,’ said a witness who declined to give her name. “There was blood everywhere. The guy getting stabbed was screaming.”
