However , taken by surprise , the six athletes of Apartment 3 were captured by the terrorists . While the hostages were being marched back to the officials ' apartment , Weinberg once again attacked the intruders , knocking one of them , Mohammed Safady , unconscious and allowing one of his wrestlers , Gad Tsobari , to escape via an underground parking garage . The terrorists fatally shot Weinberg , then threw his body into the street . In moving the hostages to the coaches ' apartment , the terrorists killed weightlifter Yossef Romano after he attempted to resist the terrorists . The nine remaining hostages were also subsequently killed in what became known as the Munich massacre . Atif and four other terrorists were killed by German snipers on 6 September
