Vivian Blake, the blood-thirsty boss of a coke-smuggling gang that killed some 1,400 people in the U.S - many in the Bronx - died Sunday in his native Jamaica following a heart attack.
He was 53.
Federal prosecutors alleged that Blake's Shower Posse - they showered targets with bullets - ran the streets red with blood during the coke wars of the 1980s while smuggling more than 1,000 tons of the drug into the U.S.
At the time of his death, Blake had been working on a screenplay about the Shower Posse, which he founded in Brooklyn in the 1970s, his lawyer said.
