Reputed Mobster Caught Hiding In Idaho Back In Mass.
WORCESTER, Mass. (AP) -- A reputed New England mobster who hid out in Idaho for more than a decade is back in Massachusetts, where he faces federal racketeering charges.
Enrico Ponzo was arrested last month at his home in the small Idaho town of Marsing.
The FBI said he had been living in Idaho for at least a decade since he fled Boston in 1994 to avoid state drug charges.
He was indicted in 1997 on more serious charges, including attempting to kill former mob boss Francis "Cadillac Frank" Salemme.
Ponzo is scheduled to be arraigned Friday in U.S. District Court in Worcester.
