    Mr. Gemballa is missing?

    It appears he was either kidnapped, or may be running from the law. Nobody knows yet...

    The rumors about the police storming the headquarter proved false. They were there just to collect info about Mr Gemballa himself.

    Maybe he angered Ferrer. You never know. He wants to pop a cap in his ass.

    This has a highly WTF status around it. Will make an interesting tale when it all comes out in the wash one suspects.

    wow, that's intense. Who saw that one coming? ...Other than Chuck Norris, who sees everything.

    I suppose an RIP and condolences is in order.

    On a side note, this would make an awesome movie.

    Don't mess with the mafia. Those people need no reason to kill somebody, and giving them one makes everything even worse.
    Condolences for the family. And as Rob said: I always thought stuff like that wouldn't happen to real people. Sounds rather like a crime movie plot.
