They were must likely shot. In rare and fortunate cases they might have escaped. Some people were shot. Some were captured by the Border Command and turned over for trial. Quite a few escaped. My favorite escape story was an East German man who walked up to a control point on the Berlin Wall, and waited next to the door until a guard came out. He told the guard, "I am trying to visit my sick grandmother in West Berlin, but I have forgotten my papers." The guard told him to go home and get his papers. He moved to the other side of the door, then waited for a different guard to come out. "I am trying to visit my sick grandmother in East Berlin, but I have forgotten my papers." The guard told him to go back into West Berlin and get his papers.
