(ANSA) - Rome, July 29 - Police said they have ended a convicted mafioso's 11-year flight from justice by literally catching him on the run, apprehending him on his daily jog.
Vito Zappala had been a fugitive since 1999 following a conviction for drug dealing and trafficking with Mafia methods.
The man, who was captured in a town near the northern city of Treviso, is considered part of a gang handling drugs deals between Belgium and Italy that is linked to the Laudani Mafia clan from the Sicilian city of Catania.
