[edit]Murder attempt
In July 1999 Charles Ewert, a business associate of Glock, hired a French ex
-mercenary to murder Glock (who was 70 years old at that time[3]) with a mal
let in a garage in Luxembourg in an apparent attempt to cover up embezzlemen
t of millions from the Glock company.
Although Glock's injuries included seven head wounds and the loss of about a
litre of blood, Glock was able to fend off the attack by striking the hitma
n twice. The hired killer, 67-year-old Jacques Pêcheur, was sentenced to 17
years in prison for the attack. Charles Ewert was sentenced to 20 years as
a result of Pêcheur's testimony.[4] | s*******n 发帖数: 12995 | | w*l 发帖数: 2550 | 3 67 yr-old vs 70-yr old.
