Ubojica Mark David Chapman pred ubojstvo je doletio u New York s Havaja i obilazio taj grad po uzoru na lik Holdena Caulfielda iz poznatog Salingerovog romana Lovac u žitu.
Na današnji je dan 25-godišnji Mark David Chapman ubio Johna Lennona u New Yorku. Ubojstvo se dogodilo pred poznatom stambenom zgradom ‘Dakota’ u kojoj su Lennon i Yoko Ono stanovali, a koja je smještena uz Centralni park.
Ubojica Chapman imao je psihičkih problema i bio je dugo vremena opsjednut mišlju kako treba ubiti Lennona. Inače je od djetinjstva bio veliki obožavatelj i Beatlesa i Lennona. Pred ubojstvo doletio je u New York s Havaja i obilazio je taj grad po uzoru na lik Holdena Caulfielda iz Salingerovog romana Lovac u žitu.
Na dan ubojstva Chapman je čekao Lennona pred njegovom zgradom. Oko 17.00 Lennon je izašao s Yoko Ono i uputio se prema limuzini. Chapman se rukovao s njime i Lennon mu je potpisao nedavno objavljeni album. John i Yoko su otišli, a Chapman je nastavio čekati.
John Lennon i Yoko Ono vratili su se oko 22:50 i tek tada ga je Chapman upucao. Pogodio ga je s četiri metka u leđa i ubio na licu mjesta. Osuđen je na zatvor u trajanju od 20 godina do doživotnog i danas još uvijek služi kaznu.

Radio, film and television brought the big wide world to the remotest village in Bavaria as early as the late 1950s. Schmalzlocken and mopeds were popular. Instead of leather pants, a "cool" leather jacket was needed. And so the farm boy Hans quickly became "da Jonny".
