The former Mayor of Siderno Italy, Alessandro Figliomeni who visited Thunder Bay in 2004 as part of a Sister Cities tour has been arrested in Italy. News reports say he was arrested as part of an investigation into the Ndrangheta organization. Those same reports say investigators claim Figliomeni came here last year, to ease tensions between Thunder Bay's cell and leaders in Toronto. Siderno is no longer a Sister City of Thunder Bay. City officials say they lost communication a few years ago.
