What was the first assassination/murder recorded on film?
score:2
Accepted answer
One potential resource is Wikipedia's list of filmed assassinations. Can anyone find any of those that preceed Alexander I of Yugoslavia in 1934? I picked that one at random, but a bit of google suggests that this may be the first assassination captured on film.

My guess without going to Wikipedia is Alexander I of Yugoslavia while he was in Marsaille visiting a French leader. I think it was around 1934. I wonder if Austrian Chancellor Dolfuss's assassination (from around the same time) was caught live on radio or film.
