Briton Killed and Another Injured in Poland Mass Shooting that Left Six Dead

Police said 15 people were injured and the suspect remains in serious condition after officers exchanged fire with him minutes after the attack.

  • On Saturday, a gunman killed six people, including one British national, and injured 15 others after driving through Krakow's historic Main Market Square and opening fire on the public.
  • According to Polish Interior Minister Marcin Kierwinski, the 25-year-old suspect held 'very radical' views and opened fire with an automatic weapon. 'Everything indicates he was inspired by the far right,' Kierwinski said.
  • In a disturbing development, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk revealed three additional bodies—two women and a man—were discovered at the suspect's home. 'It looks like they are members of his close family,' Tusk said.
  • Prime Minister Andy Burnham described the attack as 'senseless violence,' stating he was 'shocked and saddened' by the shooting. Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband said the UK government 'deeply mourns the British national and other victims.'
  • Police exchanged gunfire with the suspect just three minutes after receiving reports, eventually taking him into custody. The shooter remains hospitalized in serious condition while authorities continue investigating the full circumstances of the attack.
