Olof Palme

Stockholm, Sweden

Olof Palme

A plaque in the pavement marks Sweden's most infamous crime scene. On February 28, 1986, Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme was shot down here. Though thirty years of investigation, no one has been convicted for the murder. The street nearby was renamed Olof Palmes gata to commemorate the victim.
