Description

At 9.40 pm on Saturday, an unmasked terrorist entered the El Puerto seafood restaurant in Ciérvana (Vizcaya), 20 kilometres from Bilbao. After shouting ‘Get down!’, he shot José Manuel García Fernández in the back of the head. The civil guard had been having some tapas with his wife at the bar of the restaurant. The terrorist made off in a car driven by another ETA member, which was waiting outside with the engine running.
