FBI searches home of late Chicago Mob Capo Angelo "The Hook" LaPietra



The Chicago Sun-Times reports:
Chicago FBI agents are searching the home of the family of Angelo “The Hook” LaPietra, the late and widely feared mob leader, the Chicago Sun-Times has learned.

Authorities have said the house in Bridgeport was the target last month of burglars who believed a fortune had been stashed there — perhaps including the famed, 45-carat Marlborough diamond.

The search began this morning at the fortress-like home at 30th and Princeton. Agents appear to be looking for any stolen items.
No word yet from former Chicago Mob attorney Anne Burke on this one.
