On August 20, 1940, an undercover Stalinist agent, Ramón Mercader, met with Trotsky in his home to discuss an article he had written. When Trotsky looked down to read the article, Mercader pulled out an ice axe and plunged it into his skull. Hearing the commotion, Trotsky's bodyguards burst into the room, and Trotsky yelled:"Do not kill him! This man has a story to tell."
The famous Marxist died a day later of severe brain damage.
