John Gotti's 17-Year-Old Grandson Busted In Queens

2010_10_jgotti.jpg When you grow up Gotti, getting stopped by cops may be expected, but over a pellet gun? The Post reports that John Gotti's grandson, John Gotti (son of Peter Gotti Jr.), was "busted last night in Queens after cops caught him and three pals fleeing in a car after one of them allegedly fired a pellet gun." Plainclothes cops were in Howard Beach because kids were up to Halloween shenanigans at PS 207—toilet papering and spraying shaving cream—when they "heard a shot and saw four youths fleeing in [a car] driven by the 17-year-old" Gotti. The police recovered a pellet gun that had been recovered from the car; Gotti's 14-, 15-, and 17-year-old passengers weren't ID'd and charges are pending.

    "saw four youths fleeing in [a car] driven by the 17-year-old"

    Good catch, Jen, in not quoting the Post's obvious error about what kind of car it was (an "Acura Infinity").
