Law and Order the Palermo way


Before you read this, and to create the mood, open up another window and cut and paste this  link.

Roscoe and Timmy. Undercover. Disguised. Staking out. Telescopic cameras and all that. Actually, it was none of any of that.
It was more like this. Rosoce and Timmy. Fancy drinks and fine food at a restaurant on the Piazzo San Franscesco, coincidentally the very same Piazzo where the Antica Focacceria is located.
To get you up to speed, this restaurant in Palermo was the first business to publicly say a big, fat no to the maffia's extortion.  This means the owner's are now under threat, not by words but bullets.
Lucky for us, as we were dining at the place across the road and upstairs we had a great view as the undercover cops pulled up.
Check it out. The big silver sedan on the right has blacked out windows. There is a silver golf on the left with a plain cloths dude leaning on the back of the car. And see the guy, back to camera, next to the motorbikes? He is putting on his bullet proof vest...

Doing Doing!
