__________
JonSnowTheBastid: The cop looks as if he is thinking “goodnight sweet prince”
Fred_Evil: That looks remarkably less gory than I would expect from a shotgun to the head. And is that cop saluting? No, he’s adjusting his hat, right?
lnimical: Looks like he was shot by someone from the back seat?
Icedrous: I was looking at the police officer like “wait, that doesn’t look bad at all”
Then I saw the car and what was in said car.
I feel dumb
roguefiftyone: There was a crazy mob war in Philly then; dudes were getting car bombs and pipe bombs on their porches.
See_i_did: [For the lazy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angelo_Bruno), like me.
Intensityintensifies: How the fuck does Getty even own crime scene photos?
hankHhankerson: Telling me that ain’t frank Sinatra in the background???
Firebrand713: That cop is like “great, another dead gangster. Not again!”
BelowAverage_Elitist: My step grandad was a cop in Philly back then. Wonder what he could tell me about this
sto243: I remember this. Happened outside the Melrose Diner. That have awesome apple pie.
galwegian: i’m guessing, since it was the mob, the shotgun damage is at the back of his head. the dirty rats!
