When the Mafia & Police Hunted Down One Man Together

Video Description

He was the monster the Mob created—and the monster they had to kill. In the chaotic, cash-fueled depths of Prohibition-era New York, Vincent "Mad Dog" Coll became the most feared and uncontrollable killer the underworld had ever seen. A former protégé of beer baron Dutch Schultz, Coll broke away to launch a brazen, all-out turf war that didn't just target rivals—it shattered the fundamental code of organized crime. This is the story of a terrifying, 18-month spree that included high-stakes kidnappings, brazen machine-gun attacks, and a chilling act of indiscriminate violence that forced both the police and the Mob's newly formed leadership (The Commission, run by Lucky Luciano) to declare him Public Enemy No. 1. Coll's reckless rage—culminating in the tragic murder of a 5-year-old child—was not just a criminal footnote. It was the catalyst that forced the American Mafia to adopt a single, crucial rule: No more uncontrolled violence. His downfall was the price of admission for the modern, disciplined syndicate that would dominate the next 50 years.
