Back in New York City, he took a suite of rooms at the Hotel Monticello on Manhattan's west side and began trying to reestablish his rackets in the city. But there was still a target on his back, and on Oct. 12, 1930, at about 10 a.m., Diamond was shot and wounded by three men who forced their way into his room and shot him five times. Still in his pajamas, Diamond staggered out into the hallway where he collapsed. When police arrived, they asked him how he managed to walk out of the room with five bullets in him. Diamond allegedly said he drank two shots of whiskey to steady himself before going for help. Diamond was taken to the Polyclinic Hospital in Manhattan, where he eventually recovered and was discharged on Dec. 30. He recovered yet again from his wounds, but his troubles were far from over.Diamond's wife Alice is pictured at his hospital bedside, top, and in a glamour pose, above.Above is a British newspaper featuring a story about the shooting.
