On Tuesday, germany erupted in horror and indignation after a 20-year-old fuel station employee was fatally shot by a client enraged about being forced to wear a mask while purchasing beer. The fatality in the western town of Idar-Oberstein on saturday evening is thought to be the first in germany tied to the govt's coronavirus regulations.


The squabble began when the cashier, a teenager, instructed the customer to wear a face mask, as is necessary for all German stores. The man left after a brief altercation. After that, the suspect reappeared an hour and a half later, this time wearing a mask. However, as he approached the cash register with his six-pack of beer, he removed the mask, sparking a new conversation. 


On Monday, prosecutor Kai Fuhrmann told reporters, "The culprit then brought out a pistol and shot him square in the head." The culprit, a 49-year-old German guy, surrendered the next day by walking to a police station. He was apprehended and confessed to the crime. He said he was "trapped" by the coronavirus restrictions, which he saw as an "ever-growing intrusion on his liberties," and that he had "no other way out," according to Fuhrmann. Mayor Frank Fruehauf of Idar-Oberstein described it as "an inconceivable, awful deed," and citizens have left bouquets of flowers outside the gas station.
