Today In Latin American History
Deposed Nicaraguan dictator Anastasio Somoza Debayle was assassinated in the streets of Asunción, Paraguay on September 17, 1980 when his car was hit by an RPG-7 rocket launcher. The assassination, which took place over a year after the FSLN had ousted Somoza and taken control of the Nicaraguan government, was led by the Argentinian Enrique Gorriarán Merlo, a former member of the Ejército Revolucionario del Pueblo (ERP).
