# Arnold Rothstein

Canonical: https://mobfiles.org/people/arnold-rothstein/

New York gambler shot on the night of Sunday, November 4, 1928 in a room of the Park Central Hotel; he died at Polyclinic Hospital on November 6 without naming the person who shot him. This page rests on 1928 newspaper pages; no federal record about him has been found.

Every line on this page comes from a 1928 newspaper page filed in this archive, as the wire services reported it at the time. No FBI, National Archives or court record about Rothstein has been found. The papers repeat police theories and Broadway gossip about a gambling debt as the motive; this page does not.

The outcome of the prosecution in his killing is not covered by any record filed here. No record filed on this page states a family, a rank, or a role in any organization.
