Wolfgang P. in court on Tuesday. Photo: DPAAfter a gun enthusiast shot and killed a special forces police officer at the door to his house last year, the radical Reichsbürger movement came to national attention. He now faces a murder charge, plus charges of attempted murder and grievous bodily harm. Wolfgang P. was a hobby hunter who possessed more than 30 weapons, but Bavarian authorities decided in summer 2016 that he was no longer mentally fit to hold a gun licence. The special forces operation came after Wolfgang P. repeatedly refused to let regular police onto his property over the preceding weeks.
