A man can be seen throwing punches in the direction of a taller man — presumably Gino Gabrielli, who is the brother of John's wife, Eleanor Gabrielli — and an unidentified woman.
One of the Gotti boys' blows appears to hit both Gabrielli and the woman, who was standing between the Gotti bro and Gabrielli in a bid to protect the latter.

Mom of Bronx teen killed in 2018 gang slaying backs Cuomo for mayor
The mother of a 15-year-old Bronx boy killed in a vicious 2018 gang slaying said Saturday she's backing ex-Gov. Andrew Cuomo for mayor because he's best qualified to clean up Gotham's crime-ridden streets. 'I don't want to see any more parents losing their children,' Leandra Feliz, mother of the late Lesandro 'Junior' Guzman-Feliz, exclusively told The Post when asked why she supports Cuomo. 'You know, with this crime in the city, we need somebody to make changes. We need it.' Leandra Feliz, mother of the late Lesandro 'Junior' Guzman-Feliz, said she's backing ex-Gov. Andrew Cuomo for NYC mayor because he's best qualified to clean up Gotham's crime-ridden streets. Tomas E Gaston Two dozen members of the 'Trinitarios' street gang were busted in the shocking June 20, 2018, caught-on-video attack on the teenager at a Belmont bodega, in what authorities said was a case of mistaken identity. The heartbroken mom appeared with Cuomo at a Bronx news conference to reflect on her son's death seven years later. Cuomo — the frontrunner heading into Tuesday's Democratic mayoral primary — promoted himself as a law-and-order candidate while painting socialist Queens Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani, who is polling second behind him, as a 'Defund The Police' radical. Cuomo — who's vowed to hire 5,000 more cops if mayor — also claimed he's the best candidate because 'experience matters, qualifications matter.' The event bizarrely included Cuomo unveiling large images of Mamdani social media posts from 2020 demanding the City Council defund cops. Leandra Feliz (right)outside Bronx Supreme Court in 2018 when her son's alleged killers appeared for a hearing. for New York Post 'We need to elect a socialist city council to defund the NYPD,' read a Mamdani tweet in October 2023 Cuomo used as a prop. Leandra Feliz' home is a monument to her lost teen, with his smiling face depicted everywhere, from artwork hung on the walls to a throw pillow. She keeps the jacket Junior wore as an NYPD Explorer framed on the wall, next to shirt in a frame with her son's name and the phrase, 'Gone, but not forgotten.' 'Nobody feels safe in New York. … Everybody's scared. Nobody feels safe,' she said. 'So we need to do something to stop the violence, stop the crimes. We need help. And this is not for me. This is for everybody. 'I don't want to see any more parents losing their children.'

Man conned out of $400K in gold coins latest vic of LI fraud ring: suit
A Michigan man was allegedly scammed out of almost $400,000 in gold coins by a Long Island dealer who is at the center of at least a dozen scams across the United States, court documents reveal. Ahmad Abdallah shipped five boxes of American Gold Eagle coins to Suffolk County-based Austin Coins in May 2024 as part of a deal that they be appraised and sent back if no trade was agreed to, according to a lawsuit filed on Long Island last week. The collection included nearly 150 perfect condition, 22-karat coins minted as early as 1987 and ranging in size from 1/10th of an ounce to 1 ounce. The coins have face values of up to $50 each, though with gold currently priced at $3,400 an ounce, their actual worth is much higher. 3 Patrick White sent Ahmad Abdallah a text in October of Abdallah's coins that were supposed to be returned after appraisal, according to a lawsuit. Obtained by the New York Post After what he says was a 'bad faith, low-ball appraisal,' Abdallah demanded that Patrick White, the owner of Austin Coins, send the collection back to him, the federal court filing claims. But Abdallah never got his coins back, he claimed in the suit, and was instead strung along by White, who assured him he was trying to find a buyer for the collection. 'Any news on my coins?' Abdallah asked White in October, according to court documents. 'Pat, please man, tell me something.' 'Pat, you just tell me things to hold me off for a day or so and then you disappear and nothing happens,' Abdallah texted him a week later. Abdallah is seeking at least $385,000 for what he calls a 'willful, fraudulent, and dishonest 'appraisal scam.'' 3 White sent Abdallah over text boasting of his travels. White was already in court in April for a hearing in a different case, in which he and co-conspirators were accused of scamming Earl Keith — an 82-year-old retiree and cancer patient from Wyoming — into 'investing' more than $300,000 of his life savings into gold coins. Kenneth Walsh, an attorney for Keith, Abdallah and several other alleged victims of White and his businesses said he asked White about Abdallah during the April hearing. White claimed he had Abdallah's coins at his home in Huntington, before admitting they were actually in a storage container mostly filled with 'junk' in Melville that was at risk of being auctioned off because he owed the facility money, according to transcripts. He paid the CubeSmart an hour before the contents were auctioned off but has refused to return Abdallah's coins, according to the court papers. 3 Abdallah begged White for months to give him an update on his gold coins and to ship them back to him in Michigan. Obtained by the New York Post 'Mr. Abduallah's case is an unfortunate example of how these coin fraudsters work,' Walsh told The Post. 'We believe there are many other Austin Lloyd customers like him suffering financial losses in the millions,' Walsh continued. 'Even while under investigation, Patrick White and his accomplices continue to brazenly defraud consumers like Mr. Abduallah. Someone has to put an end to this — and that's why we pursue these cases.' White, a former stockbroker now banned by the US Securities and Exchange Commission, is accused of being the 'ringleader' of at least 12 different coin scams, according to a lawsuit filed last year in Onondaga, New York, and several others reviewed by The Post. White allegedly swindled upwards of $6.8 million from people across the country since around 2020, primarily 'vulnerable' retirees recruited through telemarketing cold calls made by his various shell companies, including Austin Lloyd, Inc., according to the filed lawsuits. White said in court testimony that he and his accomplices had more than 5,000 customers. White, who sources say has yet to face jailtime for the accused crimes, did not immediately respond to a message from The Post.
