The wounded assassin, Josef Bachmann, is laid on a stretcher by firemen after a shootout in West Berlin, 11 April 1968. Bachmann, a house painter, had shot Rudi Dutschke, the leader of the German socialist student association 'Sozialistischer Deutscher Studentenbund', in broad daylight on Kurfuerstendamm Street. Dutschke survived severely injured, but died on 24 December 1979 as a late result of the shooting. (KEYSTONE/DPA/Str)
