Gunman who killed 6 in Kraków mass shooting has died in hospital
Police say the 24-year-old suspect was inspired by far-right ideology and was shot by officers before dying in hospital.
- Malopolska Policja announced Monday that the 24-year-old gunman suspected of killing six people in Krakow died in hospital early this morning. The Polish attacker had been hospitalized following Saturday's attack.
- Prosecutors say the attacker was inspired by "far-right ideologies" before opening fire in Krakow's busy Main Market Square on Saturday. The shooting began shortly before 15:00 GMT.
- Six people died in the "terror" attack, including one British man, while another 16 people were injured. The gunman is also suspected of killing three family members in Poland.
- Armed officers engaged in a gunfight with the suspect within three minutes of the shooting beginning. This rapid intervention prevented a further massacre in the city's historic Main Square.
- Poland observed national mourning following the rare mass shooting, which prompted heightened security measures across the country. Authorities continue investigating the incident in the historic city.
