During the shootout Grams killed officer Michael Oskar 'Shorty' Newrzella and suffered five gunshot wounds himself before falling down platform 3/4. During the operation his 36-year-old girlfriend and RAF member Birgit Hogefeld was arrested. Shortly after the operation there were allegations that Grams had not shot himself but was executed with a shot in the head from close range by a GSG 9 officer but they were upheld by five different courts.
