Several went out to protest and one of the young men threw a grenade at the vehicle in which Franz Ferdinand and his wife were going. When the grenade exploded several people were injured. The imperial couple had no injuries but they canceled their tour. Instead, they decided to go to the hospital to visit an officer who had been injured, and during the trip they were killed.
This murder unleashed a series of protests and a month later, on July 28, Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia. Chaos grew like a snowball. Russia got involved as it had alliances with Serbia.
