The Godfather is going to do time in the can

The Godfather has been arrested.

The head of the Sicilian Mafia, Bernardo Provenzano, nicknamed "The Tractor" for the way he once mowed down his rivals, was arrested without a struggle yesterday after 42 years on the run.

The 73-year-old was found in a small farmhouse near his home town, Corleone.

Provenzano, the subject of the Godfather novel and films, had been on the run since 1963 after being involved in the killing of a rival, Michele Navarra.
