Your daily dose of old world gangsters who were rubbed out doing what they loved most. Plus some other fun stuff.

Bad luck, Chuck
Charles Rosenhaus was 35 years old and had three arrests under his belt. He was currently a proprietor of a number of Bowery newsstands and part owner, with Albert Meyer, of a cabaret known as Green's Restaurant. Early in the morning on this day back in 1925, while his partner Meyer was across the street, Rosenhaus was approaching the cabaret when a man walked up to him and fired three shots into his chest. Charles dropped to the ground as his assailant got away. The police said that Rosenhaus knew his life was in danger and pointed out that he was wearing a holster equipped with a fully loaded revolver.
