Antonio Annarumma

Antonio Annarumma (10 January 1947, Monteforte Irpino, Campania – 19 November 1969, Milan) was an Italian policeman who was killed at the age of 22 while serving during a demonstration organized by the Italian (Marxist–Leninist) Communist Party and from the Student Movement.

He is sometimes considered to be the first victim of the Years of Lead, a period of social and political upheaval in Italy.

The demonstration passed in front of the Teatro Lirico, Milan, where a union rally was held by CISL with speaker Bruno Storti.

During attacks on the police, Annarumma was hit by an iron tube, according to the court inquiry.

[1] Students believed it was the accident which killed him, but this claim was repudiated by the medical examination.
