A man who allegedly opened fire on two brothers is now behind bars. Police say the shooting was supposed to be revenge for the murder of an underworld kingpin but the gunman shot the wrong men.

The missing link quite so much over the door. Almost two years since William and Eric Ciali were shot in a Marrickville barbershop, police say they've caught the man who pulled the trigger. Who who saw twenty three year old Samuel Lee Howley arrested in Edmonson Park over a revenge attack for the execution of Underworld figure Alan Mradian, a crime the brothers had nothing to do with.

As List brothers were incorrectly identified as being responsible for the murder of Meridian.

William Ciari has been keeping a low profile until last week, when the thirty three year old was involved in this brawl at a Belmore service station, Ciari and two maids stomping and bashing her bib Ala medine with milk crate and a concrete ballard. Police don't believe the fight is connected to Ciari's attempted murder. The arrest of the alleged government now brings the total number of people charged over the shooting to fifteen. From planning the hits to covering it up, sixty seven charges have now been laid and police aren't done yes, with more arrests expected.

It was a rather dedicated attempt to murder these two people, as a lot of persons involved.
