At around ten o'clock on 23 February 1930, Wessel shot in the head by Albrecht Höhler outside his apartment. His death was a propaganda triumph for the Nazis, who used it in anti-Communist propaganda and made Wessel a martyr. Höhler was sentenced to six years in prison for the murder, but was extrajudicially executed by SA members after being frogmarched out of jail following the Nazi rise to power in 1933. | At around ten o'clock on 23 February 1930, Wessel shot in the head by Albrecht Höhler outside his apartment.
