SOUTH PHILADELPHIA - An arson investigation is underway at a South Philadelphia cheesesteak shop owned by notorious, convicted mobster Joey Merlino.

Merlino posted on social media back in March that he was renovating the building and opening his own cheesesteak place called Skinny Joey’s Cheesesteaks.
