Original October 13, 1930, edition of The Detroit Free Press, 17 x 22.5, 22 pages, with the headline reading "'Legs' Diamond Shot By Four Men; Dying," and secondary headline and byline reading "Show Girl in Custody as Witness; Rothstein's Ex-Aide Attacked in New York Hide-out. Betrayed by his own Bodyguard." In very good fragile condition, with central horizontal fold, uniform toning, and some light chipping and paper loss to edges. Diamond had been lured to a hotel in New York by a Ziegfeld girl, and ambushed by Dutch Schultz's men, but escaped with only minor wounds.
