Ear- The incident occurred as|lier this week, Marshal Ivan' French authorities met to dis- cuss an exchange of 40 shots by East and West Berlin police Wednesday night on the French sector border. West Berlin police said they went to the border after it was reported that East Berlin police had damaged a West Berlin car by throwing stones. In reply to requests to stop, an East Berlin policeman said: "Mind your head or I will shoot." He fired but the bullet hit no ore.' The shots were fired when three East Berlin police tried to stop two East Berliners from leaping to West Berlin from a border rooftop. One of the refugees jumped into the street before West Ber- lin firemen could bring nets into position and was killed. The other was dragged away by the Communist police. West Berlin police returned the shots in the first instance of gunfire into East Berlin across the border. Communist border guards have repeatedly fired on persons crossing the border into West Berlin. After the gun battle two Com- munist policemen could be seen pulling a third back from the roof and the West German news (The Associated Press said the East German policeman Konev, commander of Soviet forces in East Germany, warned the West again any ac- tion that might spset the pros- pects of East « West talks on Berlin.)

The spokesman said the West Berlin police considered this an attack on them and that they were en- titled to shoot back. Five West Berlin policemen, he said, fired 24 shots. The dead man, 22 - year - old Bernd Luenser, had "stood at the edge of the roof shouting desperately "Help, help me, I want to jump," as the Commu- nist police closed in on him.
