Dietrich Wagner

Dietrich Wagner (1944 – 28 June 2023) was a German engineer who suffered damage to his eyes during the 2010 Stuttgart 21 project protests due to the use of water cannons. He was 66 at the time.

Wagner was struck and knocked unconscious by the high velocity stream of water and noticed blood running down his face when he woke up. He suffered damage to his eyelids, an orbital blowout fracture, and damage to both lenses and retinas. Wagner subsequently had six eye operations but regained little of his vision and remained almost completely blind. Provided by Wikipedia
