Arthur Horne, Mim’s attorney, issued a statement on behalf of his client that Gotti and his mother, whom he purchased the restaurant for, are devastated. “On behalf of Prive, they’ve been in business for 10 years, and nothing like this has ever happened at their establishment.
“It happened out in the parking lot, and it ended up in a shootout,” he continued. “Nothing happened inside the restaurant. Despite any conflicting reports, they were closing, and this happened at the end of the evening in the parking lot.”
