Breaking

A heavily armed gunman opened fire in Krakow’s main public square, killing six people and wounding at least 15 others in what Polish authorities are treating as a major incident. The shooter, identified as a Polish national, fired from a vehicle using a military-grade weapon in what appears to be an indiscriminate attack on civilians in the busy city centre.

The victims include four women and two men, with a police officer among those seriously wounded during the incident. Emergency services responded rapidly to the shooting, with police engaging the armed assailant and placing him in custody following the attack.

The incident marks a significant security event in Poland and has prompted an investigation into the shooter’s motives and whether any ideological factors were involved in the attack.
