A reputed made member of the Gambino crime family has been freed on a personal bond after being arrested on charges related to an alleged $3 million scam involving stolen cars and scrap metal.

Carmine “The Bull” Agnello, 55, appeared in a Cleveland courtroom Friday. Agnello was arrested Wednesday by Cleveland police after an 18-month investigation. Authorities say Agnello made millions by putting sand into vehicles to add weight and then selling the compacted cars to a metals processor.
