workingclasshistory:

On this day, 14 January 1930, Albrecht “Ali” Höhler - gangster and militant of the German Communist Party’s paramilitary organisation the Roter Frontkämpferbund - shot Horst Wessel, a unit leader of Berlin’s Nazi stormtroopers (SA). Wessel was raised to the position of martyr by the Nazis, while Höhler was sentenced to six years in jail, only to be dragged out and killed once the Nazis came to power.
