"Paul was engaged in the wholesale fruit and veggie market as a supplier. He had been for some time and he was actually on his way to work at that time."

Road rage
We know what thats all about......
“Melbourne Fruiterer”, cash business, connections to underworld, hasn’t paid his dues or won’t submit to the rules
Bad apple?
Someone tried to extort him and he said no?
Mafia... Who are they anyway? Bloody fruit shop owners....
Must have been dabbling in vegetables ...
Just doesnt make sense does it ? maybe mistaken identity or just wrong place wrong time etc
Got behind in his extortion payments?
The name! a fruiterer! in Melbourne!!! Really the Age, you need to ask the public this question? Talk about fake news, clueless news seems a more apt slur.
People generally don't get gunned down for no reason. Living a double life maybe.
East Link is taking expired tags far too literally.
Killed in 'Don'vale eh? Well there you go, just like all the other fruit and veg killings, Mafia.
He do work for the Clinton's ? serious question.
relative of someone involved?
The Mafia still run the fruit markets. He stepped on toes, I dare say.
Drugs
probably just a few bad apples
