    Tips

    September 12, 2017

    The 20-year-old Chris Gueffroy wanted to flee from 5 to 6 February 1989 at this point along with a friend to West Berlin. They assumed that would not shoot at the border. Therefore, they did not respond to calls and warning shots by GDR border guards. Chris Gueffroy was mortally wounded by a heart attack and collapsed at the frontier fence. He was the last fugitive shot dead on the border with West Berlin.
