Major General Antonio Cosme Imbert Barrera (December 3, 1920[1] – May 31, 2016) was a Dominican military general of the Dominican Army and was President of the Dominican Republic from May to August 1965.
Imbert, who plotted to assassinate dictator Rafael Trujillo in 1961, was one of the two rival rulers in the Dominican Republic from May 7, 1965, until August 30, 1965, amid the Dominican Civil War. He had succeeded General Pedro B. Benoit van der Horst who ruled for less than a week. After the civil war ended, both General Imbert and his rival Colonel Francisco Caamaño resigned, and Héctor García-Godoy, a civilian, was sworn as interim president.
According to Imbert, he fired the fatal shot at Trujillo.[2]
