Death of Austrian Chancellor Dollfuss Triggered by Nazi Coup
In Vienna 141 Nazis in uniform seized the chancellery and captured Chancellor Dollfuss and ministers. Dollfuss was beaten and shot, with no priest or physician allowed, and the Nazis later surrendered hoping safe passage. Rintelen was shot after being summoned. Schuschnigg and Fey assumed leadership as instability spread across Styria amid fears of a broader European conflict.
