The terrible tragedy of Sarajevo

The empire of Austria Hungary lose their heir

Franz Ferdinand
The last Sunday, June 28 a terrible tragedy happened in the city of Sarajevo in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The attack occurred at first hour in the morning while his vehicle circulated in an official visit to the city of Sarajevo.
There were several failed attempts to kill them that morning, the most important was a cyanide bomb that caused several injuries. After this incident, the driver of the official car deviates from the established route to avoid the attackers, with the bad luck of getting lost and being with the cause of the inevitable death of the dukes.
The moment of the attempt.
 This man shot twice against the car in which the dukes were. One of the bullets reached Franz Ferdinand the chest and another one bounced and reached sofia which was pregnant with 9 months. Both died after 20 minutes. Franz Ferninand was very scrupulous in his costumes and always wore his clothes well pressed and buttoned, to the point of wearing the lapels of his shirt and jacket sewn in the military parades so that they would not move with the wind. The day of the murder he wore the stitched coat, this was one of the reasons why it was not possible to succor in time. 
All those involved in the attacks have been caught and will be judged according to their charges.
Sources close to Emperor Franz Joseph the 1st point to the fact that the last heir to the throne of Austria Hungary will be Charles of Habsburg-Lorraine and Saxony.

You can watch a animated recreation of the attempt here.

  2. Its a quiey good new with an intersting topic and a good use of the english, good images, and an original structure of the newspaper format. Something that i don't like could be the structure of the normal new (the one that's not the newspaper one). In summary its a quiet and worked new with lots of good and some bad things. What a pity the assasination of the family :(

    1. Thank you for your comment Angel Luis. You have done good analysis. You have made some mistakes: news is always plural.

  3. I like this article a lot, I love that you mentioned curious facts such as Franz Ferdinard's obsession with always being perfect, or that his wife and him died 20 minutes after they were shot. I also like the paper format, I think this was a perfect choice. - Ricardo
