Georg von Rauch

Georg von Rauch (12 May 1947 — 4 December 1971) was a member of the 1960s-70s German student movement.

He was part of the Movement 2 June and a leader of the Tupamaros West-Berlin.

In 1970 he was arrested for assaulting a journalist. He was convicted but succeeded in fleeing the courtroom after the verdict was announced.

In December 1971, von Rauch and Bommi Baumann were pulled over by a West Berlin police officer. Von Rauch opened fire and was killed in the ensuing shootout.

The squat Georg-von-Rauch-Haus was founded shortly after his death and named in his honor. Provided by Wikipedia
