Third Put “On the Spot.” H Bixteen hours later, in a downtown street, police found the body of a third er victim, Jerry Gfrrado, 35. He was identifled as a liquo" runner. Ger- rado, like Lynch and Ah€arn, had been kflled, police said. in the “on the spot” manner from which gang killers so sel- dom vary. Gerrado was killed a short distance from his home. It had not been deter- wdned today where Lynch ahd Ahearn met death. Police said it Was not in tive deserted section of the Bfonx where tife bodies were found.

Lynch and Ahearn were listed by po- lige as members of the Rao beer and liquor running mob. Lynch had a po- liee record. 1 JThe possibility that the disappearance of Ahearn’s wife two weeks ago had something to do with the killings was nét overlooked by police. Ahearn, they sadd, had made threats in Harlem that if*he found his wifs had left him for some other mobsman he would “start plenty.” HORTICULTURAL CLUB © WILL ELECT OFFICERS i'i.koml.
