A Polish man, who fatally shot six people after driving onto Kraków’s main square Saturday, died in hospital Monday, local police reported.
“We would like to inform you that the perpetrator of the tragic events died in hospital early this morning,” police wrote on X.
The masked 24-year-old opened fire on passersby in central Kraków, killing six people, including a British citizen, and injuring 16 — 12 of whom remain in critical condition. Police shot and detained the attacker. They also found his parents and sister dead at their family home Sunday. Investigators are examining those deaths alongside the Kraków attack, and have opened a terrorism probe.
