发布时间：2019-10-17 编辑：查字典英语网小编

In 1981, a 17-year-old tried to assassinate the Queen, according to documents that remained secret until now. The documents, which were from New Zealand's intelligence agency, detail a plot by the teenager, Christopher Lewis, who tried to kill monarch while she was on a trip to Dunedin, New Zealand, on October 14 of that year.

据某媒体报导，一份秘密文件显示，1981年一名17岁少年曾试图暗杀女王。新西兰情报机关公布的一份文件显示，当年10月14日，英国女王伊丽莎白二世访问新西兰时，一名叫克里斯托弗·李维斯的少年曾试图暗杀她。

Lewis, who is described in the documents as “severely disturbed,” shot at the Queen as she got out of her vehicle. According to the Sydney Morning Herald, he hid in a deserted restroom cubicle on the fifth floor of a building overlooking her parade, but his shot didn't go anywhere near the monarch.

此人名为李维斯，文件显示他 “患有精神障碍”。在女王乘车游览南岛的达尼丁市时，李维斯藏在附近一幢建筑的5楼的废弃休息室中，朝女王的座车开了一枪，但并无任何皇室成员受伤。

Crowds and reporters heard the sound, and were told it wasn't a gunshot, but instead a sign falling over.

人们听到了枪响，但警方否认了这一说法，但仍做出了倒伏的动作。

Lewis was charged with unlawful possession and discharge of a firearm, but he wasn't charged with treason or attempted murder; police told reporters he shot at a nearby road.

李维斯因非法持有以及使用枪支而受到指控，但检察官并未指控他谋杀或是试图谋杀，警方称他射击的目标是附近的街道。

He was sentenced to three years behind bars, and according to The Australian, he spent some of that time plotting to kill Prince Charles.

媒体报道，李维斯被判三年监禁，期间他还计划着谋杀查尔斯王子。

After he was released, authorities kept a close watch on his activity during major events.

获释后，在重要场合，李维斯的举动仍旧受到当局的监视。

More than 10 years after the assassination attempt, Lewis was charged with the murder of a mother in Auckland and the abduction of her baby daughter.

在李维斯试图谋杀未遂过去了10年多后，他再一次因在奥克兰谋杀一名母亲并诱拐其女儿而受到指控。

He electrocuted himself in prison in 1997 before his murder trial began. A suicide note denied the charges against him.

因他曾在1997年谋杀实验前对自己实施电击。这种自杀倾向推翻了对他的指控。
