March 22, 1962 - Michael Ljunggren
His tenure as the first national president of the Bandidos in Sweden placed him at the organizational center of one of Scandinavia's most violent organized crime conflicts. The Nordic Biker War between the Bandidos and the Hells Angels resulted in bombings, shootings, and civilian casualties across Denmark, Sweden, and Norway throughout the mid-1990s. Ljunggren did not survive it — his death in 1995 came during the height of the conflict he helped shape.
From Wikipedia
Per Michael "Joe" Ljunggren (22 March 1962 – 17 July 1995) was a Swedish outlaw biker and gangster who served as the first national president of the Bandidos Motorcycle Club in Sweden. Ljunggren was a central figure in the Nordic Biker War, in which the Bandidos feuded with the Hells Angels. He was shot dead while riding his motorcycle on the E4 motorway in Småland. The murder remains unsolved, but police believe members of the Hells Angels to be responsible.
