John Lennon spent the evening of 8 December 1980 at a recording studio in New York.

The former Beatle returned home shortly before 2300 and was about to enter his Manhattan apartment building when he was shot in the back four times. He died on the way to hospital.

The gunman was 25-year-old Mark Chapman, from Texas. He later said that "voices" in his head had told him to kill the world-famous musician.
