Frank's fate was due to Roth outwitting Michael. This implies tough that his would be assassins or fake assassins purposely left him alive after identifying themselves as being deployed by Michael. It was sort of confusing for me whether they were sent by Michael for an actual kill, or sent by Roth to frame Michael.
It was a kill as they were only foiled by the chance occurrence of a patrolman walking in on them.
Then later what is the meaning of Tom crediting Roth for "playing this beautifully" when Michael discovers Frank is alive and will testify against him? I took that to mean Roth secured Frank by framing Michael for the kill attempt. Also, why did Michael then order frank to be killed? I thought he knew Roth was behind it all.
